Produpedia.org: Lists of Everything
- phil294 6y agoI have always felt that nice, filterable lists of data tailored to non-technical users is severely lacking in the web of linked data. This is a first attempt at filling this gap. Produpedia takes the sophisticated rdf tuples of DBpedia[1] and somewhat dumbs it down to tables of different categories. This allows for fine-grained search configs, easily shareable by URL. (While interactive, I assume it is not enough so to be eligible for a Show HN prefix, so I omitted it.) What I would ultimately like to see is an open data alternative to common commercial product search engines like Google Shopping. DBpedia and Wikidata[2] datasets (both related to Wikipedia infoboxes) are not very useful in regards to actual "products", but this is a first step towards that goal. Some more details are explained on the site itself. [1] https://www.dbpedia.org/ https://www.dbpedia.org/ [2] https://wikidata.org/ https://wikidata.org/
