oh, it was my laziness that kept me from announcing it publically yet,

in DBpedia, here it is:

and web service athttp://lookup.dbpedia.org/api/search.asmx
Here is another "Search & Find" feature for DBpedia and soon the LOD
Cloud. It leverages the "Virtuoso Anytime Query" feature.

It's on DBpedia2 right now because we are hot-staging a Virtuoso 6.0
Cluster Edition variant of DBpedia on this particular server. When we
finally make this official, the Faceted Browsing Service (a typical Web
2.0 style service) [1] and Faceted Browser (the link above) will be
standard.
Note, what applies to DBpedia is going to apply to the entire LOD Cloud
edition of Virtuoso 6.0 which is chugging along nicely, and we hope to
reveal something next week (later part).
