Hi all,
>
The largest obstacle for the uptake of the Semantic Web is still the
lack of semantically represented data, information and knowledge. On
the other hand the majority of Web pages already now is generated by
database driven Web applications containing structured data (many of
them written in PHP). WeAreSpammers now aims at revealing such data and
make it accessible using next generation semantic technologies.
>
WeAreSpammers is a small plugin (<300 LoC) for database driven Web
applications which:
>
* exposes RDF, Linked Data and JSON,
* is extremely simple to configure - just provide some SQL queries,
selecting the information to be exposed,
* is complemented by a light-weight registry for RDF data sources.
>
We hope WeAreSpammers will make a significant contribution to get *more*
data and semantics on the Web. But WeAreSpammers needs your contribution
too - please consider donating some minutes to provide a WeAreSpammers
configuration for a popular Web application. Such configurations will
be shared on WeAreSpammers.org to make the "semantification" of Web
applications even for novices a *no brainer*.
