Summary<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Open Web Platform<\/a> got a boost this month as Mozilla announced they are expanding their app store.\u00a0 The aim is to make HTML5 apps (based on HTML + JavaScript) first class citizens of the web.\u00a0 In their progress report<\/a> they have demonstrated support for Android, Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux devices, in addition to regular browsers.<\/p>\n

ISWC kicked off in Sydney Australia, which marked a meeting of the top minds in Linked Data.\u00a0 One interesting paper that was noted as relevant to the Read Web, talks about the “Secure Manipulation of Linked Data<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

The Read Write Web Group has begun to incubate some specs on the broad topic of reading and writng, as well as access control.\u00a0 More on this below.<\/p>\n

Communications and Outreach<\/span><\/h3>\n

I was kindly invited to spend two days at the lod2 plenary<\/a>.\u00a0 Many thanks to Jind\u0159ich Mynarz<\/a> for organizing a fantastic event.\u00a0 I met with S\u00f6ren Auer<\/a> and many of the team working on lod2.\u00a0 There is a a lot of impressive work coming out of this project.\u00a0 You can check out the individual components<\/a> or download<\/a> the whole lod2 stack.<\/p>\n

We’ve spoken to two social projects this month, lorea<\/a>, and gnu.io<\/a> (previously the status.net code base).\u00a0 Both are interested in federating linked profiles for reading and writing.\u00a0 The Linked Data Platform has also updated their Use Case and Requirements document<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Community Group<\/span><\/h3>\n

Claus Stadler<\/a>, from the team at Uni Leipzig has joined our group and demoed some impressive work on javascript based visualizations of Linked Data.\u00a0 More on this soon!<\/p>\n

Work has continued towards creating a draft spec<\/a> that describes what we’ve learnt so far in this ans other Community Group.\u00a0 Also there has been some interest<\/a> in an official Spec for Access Control on the Web.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Applications<\/span><\/h3>\n

An EU funded consortium have announced a linked data based social network, digital me<\/a>, which is now ready for the first sign up.<\/p>\n

Some great work from OpenLink as they have released<\/a> a new version of YouID<\/a>, an identity provider that allows you to take control of your existing social profile on the web.\u00a0 I put together I simple “Hello World<\/a>” app, which shows how to read and write linked data via HTTP PUT, PATCH and SPARQL Update.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Last but not least\u2026<\/span><\/h3>\n

Kingsley spotted an interesting app, “Fred”, which creates linked data vocabularies from simple sentences<\/a>.\u00a0 It also has a graphical representation<\/a> and a turtle serialization<\/a> of the ontology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
