Hi every one.
I wanted to know what is the best or most popular approach to finding
appropriate predicates for publishing data of a special domain?
For instance when I'm looking for a specific predicate like "teaches",
(for instance to say "Jim teaches a course named "Java"), I try to
find an ontology which has a property named 'teaches'. I use Swoogle
for this reason. Then for the resulting ontologies, I perform SPARQL
queries on LOD SPARQL endpoint <http://lod.openlinksw.com/sparql> to
see if these ontologies (and the required predicate) are used in LOD
datasets. Then I choose the ontology which is used most.
Is there any better approach than this popularity-based ad-hoc approach?

Go to: http://lod.openlinksw.com
Types in: teaches.
The use the faceted navigation to see if you can find entities of type:
rdf:Property, associated with the text pattern.
Here's what I found via a quick test:
