<dbooth> From google refine, in upper right: RDF-->Edit RDF Skeleton
<dbooth> Then edit Base URI
<dbooth> ... to be whatever URI you want for your prefix/base
<dbooth> ... e.g. http://example/
<ericP> yup, lena used http://example.com/
<dbooth> Then click "(row index)" to tell it how to generate a URI from the ID column
<dbooth> ... Select "ID"
<dbooth> ... use the default "as a URI"
<ericP> OK to leave RDF Node dialog
<ericP> delete all of the properties except the one with "Names cell" at the right
<ericP> click on "property"
<ericP> you will see "search for property". enter "name"
lena: google refine is connected to prefix.cc from which it derives prefixes, predicates
… allows for voting on newly submitted prefixes
<ericP> after a second, you will see "rdfs:label"
<ericP> (of course, we'd have liked to see "foaf:name", but time will apparently fix that.)
