		<title>Why Carry the Cost of Linked Data?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In his ongoing series of niggles about Linked Data, Rob McKinnon claims that &#8220;mandating RDF [for publication of government data] may be premature and costly&#8220;. The claim is made in reference to Francis Maude&#8217;s parliamentary answer to a question from Tom Watson. Personally I see nothing in the statement from Francis Maude that implies the [...]

		<title>The demise of community.linkeddata.org</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The issue of what happened to the community.linkeddata.org site came up in this thread on the public-lod mailing list. In the name of the public record I&#8217;m posting some of the messages I have related to this issue. I&#8217;ll try and get any gaps filled in in due course (let me know if there are [...]

		<title>Wash down the Apple tablet with a gulp of Kool Aid</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not in the least bit excited about the iPad, and it seems I&#8217;m not alone. The mood seems to have changed since before the launch, with countless tech journalists previously falling over themselves to declare tablets the next big thing. (Thankfully Rory Cellan-Jones from the BBC was more measured, focusing on personal projectors as [...]

		<title>Putting a Conference into the Semantic Web</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chris Gutteridge asked this question about semantically enabling conference Web sites, which is a subject close to my heart. It&#8217;s hard to give a meaningful response in 140 characters, so I decided to get some headline thoughts down for posterity. If you want a fuller account of some first-hand experiences, then the following papers are [...]

		<title>Search Engine Optimisation for People with a Conscience</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve spent a fair amount of time recently cleaning up spammy reviews on Revyu, the Linked Data/Semantic Web reviewing and rating site. The main perpetrators of these spammy reviews seem to be self-appointed Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) &#8220;experts&#8221; (who even advertise themselves as such on LinkedIn). Their main strategy appears to be polluting the Web [...]

		<title>I&#8217;m not a lawyer, but&#8230;. ISWC2009 Tutorial on Data Licensing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the Linked Data community shifts its emphasis from publishing data on the Web to consuming it in applications, one question inevitably arises: &#8220;what are the terms under which different data sets can be reused?&#8221; There&#8217;s been a considerable amount of time and money invested by Talis and others in providing some clarity in this [...]

		<title>The Semantic Web is the Cake&#8230;but the Technologies are not the Layers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My last post about the relationship between Linked Data, the Semantic Web and the Semantic Web technology stack seemed to create more debate and disagreement than clarity. Not to be discouraged by this, I&#8217;ve been giving some more thought to analogies that may help to illuminate the the relationship between different concepts in the Semantic [...]

		<title>Linked Data? Web of Data? Semantic Web? WTF?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This post was prompted by this tweet from Tim O&#8217;Reilly&#8230; People learning about Linked Data frequently ask &#8220;what&#8217;s the relationship between Linked Data and the Semantic Web?&#8221;, which is a fair and good question. One of the responses that crops up relatively frequently is that Linked Data is just an attempt to rebrand the Semantic [...]

		<title>Linked Data Tutorials at Semantic Web Austin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent a few days last week in Austin, Texas, running two one-day tutorials about Linked Data. Juan was a great host, and the tutorials themselves were great fun (and significantly enhanced by the post-tutorial beers supplied by the very kind folk at The Guardian).  I was incredibly impressed by the energy, enthusiasm and foresight [...]

		<title>On Snake Oil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Greetings, from the shady corner of the marketplace, where dubious characters tell tales of substances with mystical properties, and push their wares on unsuspecting passersby&#8230; Today I had the dubious privilege of being branded a snake oil salesman, on the grounds that my &#8220;boosting&#8221; of the Semantic Web isn&#8217;t backed up by adequate eating of [...]
