- Semiapies 16y agoI think people know what RDF is...I just don't know that it gets used much in the web space, much less the front-end side. Is RDF used even as much as SOAP was/is?
- _delirium 16y agoI've only run into it for library-type data, where Dublin Core in RDF/XML is common.
- Semiapies 16y agoI've only ever seen even examples using Dublin Core. I'd be really curious to see anything else.
- JED3 16y agoFacebook's OpenGraph sub-classes a lot of the relationships defined in the Dublin Core vocabulary. http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/?format=rdf http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/?format=rdf Also, view-source a Flickr photo page. You can find some uses of RDFa and the Dublin Core vocab there.
- dantheman 16y agoLinked Data is the big initiative: http://linkeddata.org/ http://linkeddata.org/ With Sparql, you've got an excellent query language. Here's a cool app someone made last week: http://lamboratory.com/blog/2010/08/25/a-linked-data-movie-quiz-the-answers-are-out-there-and-so-are-the-questions/ http://lamboratory.com/blog/2010/08/25/a-linked-data-movie-q... It generates a movie quiz based off the linked data cloud. Also, there is a huge amount of work in the life sciences that uses RDF.

- bergie 16y agoYou could take the view that RDF is the only standard NoSQL solution: http://blog.datagraph.org/2010/04/rdf-nosql-diff http://blog.datagraph.org/2010/04/rdf-nosql-diff Besides that, for example Google's Rich Snippets support RDF, so it can make sense even from the SEO angle.
