Title:

Bin the Browser? Interacting with Linked Data

Your vote:
Yes No
Organizer:
Tom Heath, Talis Information Ltd
Description:
In among the Web of documents we've built a Web of Linked Data. It's huge, it's heterogeneous and it's here. So what are we going to do with it? Is the search/browse paradigm the right basis for Linked Data applications, or are we selling ourselves short?
Questions
Answered:
  1. What is Linked Data?
  2. How does Linked Data on the Web compare to linked documents on the Web?
  3. Linked Data allows lightweight aggregation of data from heterogeneous sources. How does this impact on application design and development?
  4. Models of Web interaction typically focus on search and browse. Are these the appropriate paradigms for applications built on Linked Data?
  5. Should Linked Data be used simply to create enhanced versions of existing types of applications, or should we be aiming for completely new breeds of applications?
  6. What are the underlying goals of Web users?
  7. Is our understanding of these goals sufficiently advanced/detailed?
  8. What are the types of tasks that are hard to perform on the Web using conventional applications?
  9. How might these tasks be streamlined by Linked Data applications?
  10. How can we build interfaces that coherently display Linked Data from many different sources?
