Hi,

A first version is now online[1]. The setup isn't complete yet (conneg is
still missing, and there are no mappings to other LOD datasets or even known vocabs).

I took a slightly different approach to publishing the data. The resource
URIs are (fake-)hash-based (e.g. [2]), the related doc contains a pointer
to an RDF/XML (or conneg'd RDF/JSON) version. The HTML pages contain (the beginning of) a new rdf-in-html format (called poshRDF) I'm experimenting
with, but I could possibly turn them into RDFa as well.

WRT to the attribution requirement, I've added links to the original source
at the resource level, so at least resource-oriented RDF browsers should
auto-render those back-links to crunchbase.com.

Cheers so far,
Benji

Bengee,

Cool!

I found Digg to be a better demo re. the Linked Data Space that you are materializing from Crunchbase [1].

So my little demo sequence goes like this:

1. Open <http://cb.semsol.org/company/digg> in Firefox (with the OpenLink Data Explorer Extension [2] )
2. Take: View | Linked Data Sources path (via main or context menu routes)
3. Linked Data Graph revealed starting the graph exploration from the description of the (X)HTML container document.

Heyup,

Just a short heads-up that I'm working on an RDF export and SPARQL
thingy for the recently announced[1] CrunchBase API[2]. The data is
really cool and could probably make a great LOD node. I'm in loose[3]
contact with the folks behind the API, they seem to be pretty open (we
may have to inject attribution triples somehow). Anyway, I'm still
importing the 27K source graphs, but might need some help with generating hooks into dbpedia (or whatever makes sense link-wise) once
I've set up browser and endpoint.

Cheers so far,
Benji
