I'm also interested in seeing SPARQL better supported for some of my own Exhibit and Sparql-using projects, e.g. http://qtzibit.googlecode.com http://voicetogoog.googlecode.com . Apps like these can be deployed on an open, Linux based mobile platform ( http://swipe.nokia.com ) that fundamentally integrates semantic desktop capabilities as part of the platform API: http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/library/html/libqtsparql/main.html<http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/library/html/libqtsparql/main.html?tab=1> Although such lower-level functionality is efficiently implemented in Qt ( http://qt-project.org ) C++ it can be made available in JavaScript/JSON and exported to Exhibit via QML (Qt's integrated declarative Javascript): http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/library/html/libqtsparql/qmlSparqlConnection.html IMHO, SPARQL queries are just as interesting when they're your own data taken from your own smartphone. For example, a list of all photos/video tagged with location: n950 ~ # tracker-sparql -q 'SELECT nie:url(?u) ?cty ?cry { ?u slo:location [ slo:postalAddress [ nco:locality ?cty ; nco:country ?cry ]] .}' Results: file:///home/user/MyDocs/Pictures/Objects005.jpg, Jakarta, Indonesia file:///home/user/MyDocs/Pictures/Objects008.jpg, Espoo, Finland [...] file:///home/user/MyDocs/Pictures/Places007.jpg, Greater Mumbai, India file:///home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/12010001.jpg, Corona del Mar, USA file:///home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/12010002.jpg, Corona del Mar, USA file:///home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/12010003.jpg, Corona del Mar, USA All contacts, calendar, email & social network checkins, photo face-tags, etc can be queried, e.g.: n950 ~ $ tracker-sparql -q 'select nco:nameFamily(?u) nco:nameGiven(?u) ?num { ?u nco:hasAffiliation [ nco:hasPhoneNumber ?num ] . }' Results: [...] Mayer Niels, urn:x-maemo-phone:mobile:+1xxxxxxxxxxxx [...] -- Niels. http://nielsmayer.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
