Hello Jim!
So I've been to a number of talks lately where the size of the current (Sept
08 diagram) Linked Open Data cloud, in triples, has been stated - with
numbers that vary quite widely. The esw wiki says 2B triples as of 2007,
which isn't very useful given the growth we've seen in the
My 2c in order to capture this for others as well:

I remember these early days of the Web, when people liked to draw maps of
the WWW, and these really quickly disappeared when it got big. I hope that
happens to the Data Web, too.
I am quite sure that this will happen soon; for example, there are several

I guess I asked the question wrong - the linked open data project
currently identifies a specific set of dat resources that are linked
together - so thie entity is definable - I didn't mean to ask how
big the whole Semantic Web is - I meant how many triples are in this
