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Dominic, I think this is a great idea - the W3C lists suffer both from senescence and fatigue (i.e., they're out-of-date and seem not to get refreshed with new examples).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.
