Hey folks, Just a quick followup. Kingsley and I hacked about a bit and (with a lot of hand cleaning and extra data) an interesting demo of dbpedia/archive.org linkage.
I blogged it with screenshots at http://danbri.org/words/2011/02/01/658 For those with Silverlight there's a link to running demo via Kingsley's tweet at http://twitter.com/#!/kidehen/status/32470388189429760 ...I do encourage you to take a look. It shows some of the promise of this stuff, as well as a few of the issues we're having currently with sparse Film metadata. Goal is that fixes to the film extractors will directly improve people's ability to find movies on archive.org... cheers, Dan On 31 January 2011 17:36, Dan Brickley <[email protected]> wrote: > I have just taken the list of old Archive.org-hosted movies in > http://tech.blorge.com/Structure:%20/2010/08/11/top-40-best-free-legal-movies-you-can-download-right-now/ > and linked them by hand to DBpedia.
