Kingsley,

Definitely without a good UI, it is very hard to use this.

When I get to step 2, I see 4312 types. Am I suppose to go through all of
these and select the ones I need? There should be a unselect all button.

How can I use lod.openlinksw.com to FIND all actors who were born in NYC and
died in 2003 in NYC? it is very easy to do it with the dbpedia faceted
browser:

http://dbpedia.neofonie.de/browse/rdf-type:Actor/personBirthPlace:New%20York%20City/personDeathPlace:New%20York%20City/personDeathDate-year:2003/?fc=12
