[CODE4LIB] any ideas for cool noob learning projects?

2012-02-21 Thread Matt Amory 
I've got a small dataset to work with and I'm looking to do some wonky
webby xml/xsl/php stuff with it to teach myself something.
Any ideas?

Run it through Google Refine, do some reconciliation with RDF resources
(Freebase, DBpedia, etc.)?

I'd put the data in Exhibit [1], then figure out how to usefully facet it and 
display it on a timeline and a map.  Or maybe better yet, try the same in 
Recollection [2].  And it looks like the Digital Eyes Shiva [3] project does 
similar things, and works directly from Google spreadsheets.
