Hi Kingsley,
maybe I should have written the announcement more clearly - these are two completely separate applications that we simply announced together, i.e. the DBpedia User Script, which adds the icon, has nothing to do with the Faceted Browser.
The Faceted Browser is here: http://dbpedia.neofonie.de/browse/

Cheers,

Christian

Hi Kingsley,

Christian,

I am trying to compare this new Faceted Browsing approach to say: http://dbpedia.org/fct .

I think what makes the new Faceted Browser stand out is its use of the DBpedia ontology for facet selection, which makes it really intuitive to use. Plus, it's built for DBpedia and thus makes use of redirects, link counts etc. for better result sorting.
If I go to http://dbpedia.org/resource/Berlin directly, am I going to see anything different from what I would see if I started from Wikipedia, by clicking the icon?

I have installed the script, I see the miniaturized DBpedia logo based icon on Wikipedia pages, but when I click, I end up with the standard green DBpedia HTML+RDFa page. What step am I missing?

I think that's about all it does :)

So I assume its a shortcut from Wikipedia HTML page to DBpedia's HTML+RDFa page, in a nutshell?

If the above is true, here lies my confusion: why hasn't the DBpedia HTML page been described as a Faceted Browsing Interface until now?

Kingsley

Cheers,

Christian
