Edd Dumbill explores an XML and RDF application known as Friend-of-a-Friend (FOAF). FOAF allows the expression of personal information and relationships, and is a useful building block for creating information systems that support online communities. Code
xmlns.com is an internet domain created for the purposes of simple Web namespace management. The rationale for registering xmlns.com was to secure a short, memorable domain suitable for naming concepts for use in RDF and XML vocabularies.
Data on the Semantic Web is semi-structured and does not follow one fixed schema. Faceted browsing is a natural technique for navigating such data, partitioning the information space into orthogonal conceptual dimensions. Current faceted interfaces are ma
FOAF-a-matic is a simple Javascript application that allows you to create a FOAF ("Friend-of-A-Friend") description of yourself. You can read more about FOAF in Edd Dumbill's "XML Watch: Finding friends with XML and RDF" article, at the FOAF homepage on R
Hand-Crafting My FOAF
While at eTech, I attended a number of "social software" sessions. One thing I heard was a persistent call from folk like Marc Canter for all the vendors to support something called FOAF. FOAF is a standard for "Friend of a Friend" files, and is an attempt to make machine readable information about people, groups, companies, and other online resources. In particular, it is focused on representing the information that you might typically put on your personal home page in a form such that meta-data tools can interpret it.
Our goal is to design and implement D-FOAF, a distributed authentication and trust infrastructure without a centralised authority. D-FOAF will be a backbone for trust applications based on social relationships and will establish idenity of users similar to the way we establish identify and trust in real life.
FOAFCorp: Corporate Friends of Friends What is this? RDF is a great data format for describing interconnected entities. With FOAF, we have a simple fun vocabulary for describing social networks, people, organisations etc. The FOAFCorp experiment extends

Semantic Radar is a semantic metadata detector for Firefox...when detected, shows an icon in browser's status bar. Currently it supports SIOC, FOAF and DOAP metadata.
"With Videntity.org you can record your relationships to your friends and family who have websites, weblogs, or OpenID addresses of their own. It doesn't matter where they are on the internet, you just enter their name, URL, and the type of relationship y

The Net was designed to allow the computers to be seen without havingto see the cables. The realization was "It isn't the computers, but the documents which are interesting". Now you could browse around a sea of documents without having to worry
DOAC is a RDF metadata vocabulary to describe professional capabilities of a worker like any curriculum or resume that peopleuse to have in their websites but with much better capabilities.
