Hi Stas,
Thanks for the suggestion on the SPARQL endpoint. I have tested it a
bit and I must say I am excited on the potential it has.
I tend to run SPARQL queries directly from my desktop, through an IDE (i.e.
textmate) However, I haven't managed to connect to the wdqs this way. It
seems that I need to push the execute button in a browser to get the actual
results.
Is it possible to get the SPARQL results in an API manner?
Regards
