FOAFBulletinBoard

From FOAF

Jump to: navigation, search

A user maintained directory of links to FOAF descriptions. While one (great) way to get into the FOAF network is to build links between yourself and your friends, adding a link to your description on this page will make it visible to FOAF harvesting applications. (This page can be automatically turned into RDF suitable for processing by FOAF applications.)

Please read carefully when editing the page: try not to delete anyone!

Just click the link to edit the text of this page, then add your name, and a link to your FOAF description in the bulleted list below. The format is very straight-forward, but first click the UserPreferences link found at the upper right corner of the page and create a profile.

See FOAF Bulletin Board Proposal for more background, and info on how to view this page as RDF, if you're interested in harvesting the data. There's at least one other wiki doing this, too. Another option for resolving sha1's is to query SharedID - which maintains a lookup service for retrieving foaf urls that are definitive for a specified sha1.

While you are at it, you could ad "<rdfs:seeAlso rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2000/06/webdata/xslt?xslfile=http://www.ldodds.com/foaf/bulletin.xsl&xmlfile=http://cgi.w3.org/cgi-bin/tidy?docAddr=http%3A%2F%2Frdfweb.org%2Frweb%2Fwiki%2Fwiki.pl%3FFOAFBulletinBoard"/>" or <rdfs:seeAlso rdf:resource="http://jibbering.com/2002/10/rdf-wiki.1"/> to your foaf-file. That would point crawlers to the rdf-version of this page.

As of June 2003, Leigh's original RDF-extraction tools no longer work (since we switched to use the moinmoin Wiki, whose HTML is too bad to be tidied). However Jim Ley has set up a different rdf view of this page.

TODO: Some encodings on this page are broken. A clean version is available at http://crschmidt.net/~crschmidt/Board.html , which I will fix encoding stuff on ASAP.
