Hi Kingsley,

I've been on this list a short time, and I've seen several comments from 
you about the "need" for projects that use dbpedia to do all this 
interlinking with dbpedia, exposing, and whatnot.

Can you please explain more about your thinking?

It seems to me that there are many faces to open data. These range from 
sharing data, to linking data, to using data. While I am an advocate of 
open data, I'm also an advocate of broad use, and I think it would be 
great for there to be more public-serving web sites that are a front-end 
to dbpedia. Students and the general public who are using this 
structured data certainly should not be forcefed the technical aspects. 
... and I don't think you necessarily intend that.

Can you explain more about what you consider the ideal front end? 
Specifically, imagine an end-user-focused web site or mobile app. Are 
you resistant to pure browsers which never expose any actual links to data?

Michael
