Are you confusing Linked Data and Linked Open Data?
Even if applications were all built on LOD (which they're not), and
described themselves as LOD (which they don't), I don't buy this argument.
It's interesting that you think "this is Web 101" when Google struggle
to assemble a complete list of anything, while Wikipedia is full of
lists and lists of lists and lists of lists of lists.

Dominic, I think this is a great idea - the W3C lists suffer both
from senescence and fatigue (i.e., they're out-of-date and seem not
to get refreshed with new examples).
May I be presumptuous enough to offer to help/steal from the EUCLID
project, where we're already compiling such a list (and ResearchSpace
is already on it ;) )?

We don't need a central repository of anything. Linked Data is
supposed to be about enhancing serendipitous discovery of relevant
things. Centralization doesn't scale, that's Web 101.
If you have something relevant, just publish it. That's it.

As a result of the other thread about applications (which should
continue with some more and varied views) I would like to suggest
that this list starts to compile a list of use cases for linked
data. We should start to list end user applications from as many
different domains as possible that could never be implemented
without RDF as they rely on linked data and semantic harmonisation,
and would greatly benefit end users.
I am happy to compile the suggestions made.
