Hello,This is true, we do link to bbc.co.uk/music/artists in our foaf.qdos.com FOAF builder, which allows people to create/edit their FOAF profile (which we either host [as linked data] or export to webdav,flat file, etc to be hosted at the user's preferred location). But, I am guessing this particular instance of linkage would fall under the umbrella FOAF bubble in the cloud. The QDOS -> dbpedia links are specific to the qdos.com/user part of QDOS which we use to maintain a list of people (~100,000), and their online presence.

I think you should be - esp. as you also connect to the BBC linked data with stuff like:<lastfm:favouriteArtist rdf:resource="http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/e60e1f0b-1e8c-45e7-9d4a-222db9cb34f7#artist "/>in the FOAF profiles you generate.

I was wondering whether QDOS should have a link to DBpedia, as we emit owl:sameAs relationships from celebs to dbpedia resources: see Barak Obama's turtle file [2]. QDOS currently has around 100,000 people, about half of which are linked to dbpedia resources.

The links to DBpedia were rather strange. For instance the first link I found owl:sameAs'ed Yahoo finance balance sheet with Dbpedia bed sheet, which is even for me as a big supporter of owl:sameAs links a bit too much Semantic gap. Did you improve the quality of the external links in the meantime and do the cartridges regularly deliver data? Another problem is that many of the sources are not really Open Data as various license restrictions apply.

Find the draft here:http://www4.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/bizer/pub/lod- datasets_2009-02-27.pngWe have already added: 1. the RKBExplorer cloud 2. the Bio2RDF cloud 3. the LODD cloud 4. GeoSpecies 5. LIBRIS Statistics on triple and link count (as well as target sources) are missing for the following sources: - Faviki - RDFohloh - OpenCalais - LIBRIS Did we forget any new data sources or links between data sources? Keep in mind: A data source qualifies for the cloud, if the data is available via dereferencable URIs and if the data source is interlinked with at least one other source (meaning it references URIs within the namespace of the other source). AnjaAnja, You have MySpace and Flickr Wrappers but still don't include all the Virtuoso Sponger Cartridges (which are wrappers) to the Cloud [1] ? Also, the LODD data sets page should be linked to: http://esw.w3.org/topic/DataSetRDFDumps, so we can track down the dumps with ease re. the Virtuoso LOD hosting instance. links: 1. http://virtuoso.openlinksw.com/images/sponger-cloud.html -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen Weblog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen President & CEO OpenLink Software Web: http://www.openlinksw.com___________________________________ Mischa Tuffield Email: mischa.tuffi...@garlik.com Homepage - http://mmt.me.uk/ FOAF URI - http://mmt.me.uk/foaf.rdf#mischa .This email is only intended for the person to whom it is addressed and may contain confidential information.
