David,
That is something we were talking today at the BOF at WWW. "How can I
find URI".
You want to lookup a an Entity URI from the LOD Cloud, right?
Do explore the service at: http://lod.openlinksw.com ? Take note of the
3 tabs on the home page.
Also note the VoiD graph at: http://lod.openlinksw.com/void/Dataset,
meaning you can even start exploring the LOD cloud from the description
of a dataset.
Hopefully tomorrow's session we will come up with interesting
solutions. Currently, you need to know the URI (unfortunately).
No you don't. Take a look at "URI Lookup (by Label)" tab. Type in a
literal pattern associated with an Entity who's URI you seek.
Same thing follows for the other problem. Right now, you need to know
the datasets and what vocabularies to use.
See comment above.
Personally I envision a shift from a developer prespective. Instead of
learning APIs, you learn the common vocabularies.
Yes, I am assuming Orri Erling made this crystal clear during his
workshop talk. Otherwise, do try catching up with him if you can.

Thanks for the link, Juan.
Just curious, even if I know SPARQL, how do I (as a new user) know
which properties and types there are in the data? And what URIs to
use for what?

Hi all,
Admittedly this is somewhat of a tease and shameless
self-promotion :-) but I think there are a few interesting
concepts in the query editor for Freebase that I've been
working
on that can be very useful for querying and consuming LOD
data sets:
http://www.freebase.com/app/queryeditor/about
Or maybe I missed it totally--is there anything similar for
writing SPARQL queries over LOD?
Cheers,
David
