Hi Peter,

don't know. In a O'Reilly about Google's RDFa support, Guha says that they draw and plan to draw from existing vocabularies. "And we're not going to do this all by ourselves. As it is, we are drawing from several sources. We're drawing from microformats. We're drawing from vCard. And there are other places that you will see. And there's other people who know more about their topics than we could possibly know. And we'll draw on all of these things. So to come back and answer your question, we hope that the scope of this will be substantially more than the scope of all the particular data types that work today by microformats."

All,

Even if Google makes up their own vocabulary, so what? Is this whole game about meshing structured data? This is simply a case of meshing their vocabulary with other vocabularies.

btw - the UMBEL framework has existed with this sort of thing in mind for eons. Middleware style integration isn't an ABox realm constrained activity, you can integrate in the TBox realm, and in actuality this is where the real magic will happen :-)

Meant to say:

Even if Google makes up their own vocabulary, so what? *Isn't* this whole game about meshing structured linked data? This is simply a case of meshing their vocabulary with other vocabularies.

Unlike Yahoo SearchMonkey, Google has chosen to mock up their own
ontologies instead of recognising existing vocabularies.

Very nice.  After Yahoo SearchMonkey has been around for a while,
things are
now also moving at Google.

Quite preliminary, but still noteworthy. See
http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/05/introducing-rich-
snippets.html

They are also searching for new  vocabularies and data sources that
they can
potentially support, I guess they will soon support the popular
vocabularies
(FOAF, SIOC etc.) that are also supported by Yahoo Search Monkey [1].
Maybe
we (the HCLS IG) could come up with a biomedical demo scenario based
on RDFa
and propose that to Google?
