Despite the fact URL rewriting is 'trivial' still see lots of ugly URLs out there when they could be re-written :( #kultiventTheme One: Cultural Heritage
- 11:35 Linked Heritage - the cultural potential of linking commercial data -Michael Hopwood, Work Package Leader, Linked Heritage (EDItEUR)
- @MichaelEditeur commercial world is about the data flows; flow of messages to enable trading through the supply chain #linkeddata #kultivent
- 12:05 Linked Open Data in Museums - Gordon McKenna, Work Package Leader, Linked Heritage (Collections Trust)
- @GMcKennaCT #linkedheritage #linkeddata #survey at #kultivent lots of participants which came under the category #other
- I was thinking 75% of participants in Europeana/Linked Heritage being familiar with Linked Data was pretty good! #kultivent
- @GMcKennaCT #kultivent #linkedheritage #survey more than half 'not sure' about #opendata - 'under discussion' 'not ours' 'commercial issues'
- I remain convinced that CC0 is the right decision for Europeana #kultivent. Read the Europeana white paper on this bit.ly/uLvHk8
- @GMcKennaCT is the linked data cloud open? - 'no' nearly 60% of the 311 packages aren't #opendata #kultivent
- @GMcKennaCT mentioning #DBpedia #top-ranking "community effort to extract structured information from Wikipedia" dbpedia.org
- @GMcKennaCT #kultivent mentioning lido-schema.org developed during previous project, maps to #CIDOC-CRM
