SWEO Suggestion #0 : A Blog

The first of these Semantic Web Education and Outreach Suggestions is obvious and simple. A blog focussed on educational resources. Here's how I'd do it :

  • Snappy Title : ? Mr. Beckett?
  • Participatory : anyone willing to contribute can request an account
  • Minimal Posts : link to a single educational resource (blog post, article, paper…) with a sentence or two of description
  • Facetted Classification (tagging!)
    • level : introductory/intermediate/advanced
    • type : theory/practice
    • topic : RDF storage, DLs, SPARQL, GRDDL…
  • Easy navigation : in particular, links to e.g. intermediate+theory+DL categorised; sidebar for "standard" resources - Planet RDF, specs etc.
  • Feedback : encourage

Implementation - any standard blogging tool (maybe tweaked a little for the facetted nav), hosted by anyone prepared to host it. Corporate/academic sponsorship might be desirable, big company/university logos in the sidebar might add credibility.

In later posts I'll come back to some other ways in which the material thus generated could be used.

Other SWEO Suggestions.
