RDFa

Let's meet and discuss what uses of RDF the Drupal community is making, and where people's interest are in pursuing RDF and Drupal integration. This session is for advanced RDF users and will follow up on the Introduction to the Semantic Web and RDF in Drupal 7 session.

Bring in data from other sites—Wikipedia content, New York Times historical contnet, and much more—and expose your site’s information for others to reuse. With the Semantic Web, you can use the Web as your CMS.

In this session, we will demonstrate how you can use the power of the Semantic Web to expose your site’s information and reuse information from other sites. We will also provide links as we go along to screencasts we have produced to guide you step-by-step in setting up the modules.

Topics covered:
Getting your content ready for reuse using RDF UI and SPARQL Endpoint

As of Drupal 7 we'll have RDFa markup in core, in this session I will:

• explain what the implications are of this and why this matters
• give a short introduction to the Semantic web, RDF, RDFa and SPARQL in human language
• give a short overview of the RDF modules that are available in contrib
• talk about some of the potential use cases of all these magical technologies
