Linked Open Data star scheme by example « Web of Data: "Linked Open Data star scheme by example
I like TimBL’s 5-star deployment scheme for Linked Open Data. However, every time I use it to explain the migration path from ‘no-data-on-the-Web’ to the ‘Full Monty’, no matter if to students, in training sessions or to industry partners, there comes a point where it would be very handy to refer to a concrete example that demonstrates the entire scheme.
Well, there we go. At

I am the Data Container, Disseminator, and Canvas.
I came to be when the cognitive skills of mankind deemed oral history inadequate.
I am transcendent, I take many forms, but my core purpose is constant - Container, Disseminator, and Canvas.
I am dexterous, so I can be blank, partitioned horizontally, horizontally and vertically, and if you get moi excited and I'll show you fractals.
I am accessible in a number of ways, across a plethora of media.
I am loose, so you can access my content too.
I am loose in a cool way, so you can refer to moi independent of my content.
I am cool in a loose way, so you can refer to my content independent of moi.
I am even cool and loose enough to let you figure out stuff from my content including how its totally distinct from moi.
But...
I am possessive about my coolness, so all Containment, Dissemination, and Canvas requirements must first call upon moi, wherever I might be.
So...
If you postulate about my demise or irrelevance, across any medium, I will punish you with confusion!
Remember...
I just told you who I am.
Lesson to be learned..
When something tells you what it is, and it is as powerful as I, best you believe it.
BTW -- I am Okay with HTTP response code 200 OK :-)"

inkdroid › routers, webcams and thermometers: "At the end of the day, it would be useful if the W3C could de-emphasize httpRange-14, simplify the Architecture of the World Wide Web (by removing the notion of Information Resources), and pave the cowpaths we already are seeing for Real World Objects on the Web. It would be great to have a W3C document that guided people on how to put URIs for things on the web, that fit with how people are already doing it, and made intuitive sense. We’re already used to things like our routers, cameras and thermometers being on the web, and my guess is we’re going to see much, much more of it in the coming years. I don’t think a move like this would invalidate documents like Cool URIs for the Semantic Web, or make the existing Linked Data that is out there somehow wrong. It would simply lower the bar for people who want to publish Linked Data, who don’t necessarily want to go through the process of using URIs to distinguish non-Information Resources from Information Resources.
If the W3C doesn’t have the stomach for it, I imagine we will see the IETF lead the way, or for innovation to happen elsewhere as with HTML5."

Catalogablog: VRA Core Schemas now Hosted by Library of Congress: "The VRA Core is a data standard for the description of works of visual culture as well as the images that document them. The standard is now being hosted by the Network Development and MARC Standards Officeof the Library of Congress (LC) in partnership with the Visual Resources Association . VRA Core’s schemas and documentation are now accessible at http://www.loc.gov/standards/vracore/ while user support materials, such as VRA Core examples, FAQs and presentations, will continue to be accessible at http://www.vraweb.org/projects/vracore4/
In addition, a new listserv has been created called The Core List (vracore@loc.gov). The Core List is an unmoderated computer forum that allows users of the VRA Core community to engage in a mutually supportive environment where questions, ideas, and tools can be shared. The Core List is operated by the Library of Congress Network Development and MARC Standards Office. Users may subscribe to this list by filling out the subscription form at the VRACORE Listserv site"

JISC Digital Media - Cross media: Open Source and Free Software Directory
JISC Digital Media - Cross media: Open Source and Free Software Directory: "The following tables comprise a selective guide to various free and open source software tools for a variety of digital media applications.This is an attempt to provide a first port of call for those looking for free and/or open source applications on the Internet. There is a bewildering array of such software and, as a result, we cannot hope to make this directory comprehensive. In addition, the almost daily changes in existing applications and the constant arrival of new ones means that the accuracy of information in these tables can’t be guaranteed.What this directory can provide is an easy way into the maze of applications on the Internet and a useful list of some of the most popular tools available. A quick glance at the tasks in the left hand column will immediately lead to one or more appropriate applications along with information about what machines it or they will work on. We hope to provide evaluations of some of these applications in the near future as well as keeping the directory as up-to-date as we can."
