Abstract
Researchers need to share information about their publications. They also desire to share opinions and comments about each other’s publications. The paper describes a system which demonstrates how semantic blogging can be used for the purpose. The SWRC ontology has been incorporated in the blogging system for entering the metadata of publications. The semantic blogging system provides means to annotate publications. The system is a decentralized publication aggregation system. It utilizes the RSS technology to aggregate posts. The publication metadata is embedded in the RSS to produce BuRST feed. The RSS aggregator has been extended to handle the BuRST feeds. The system uses the FOAF links of the authors and friends to explore the social network of the research community for aggregation of relevant information.
