Today we're introducing Google Fusion Tables on Labs, an experimental system for data management in the cloud. It draws on the expertise of folks within Google Research who have been studying collaboration, data integration, and user requirements from a variety of domains. Fusion Tables is not a traditional database system focusing on complicated SQL queries and transaction processing. Instead, the focus is on fusing data management and collaboration: merging multiple data sources, discussion of the data, querying, visualization, and Web publishing. We plan to iteratively add new features to the systems as we get feedback from users.
Michael, It's interesting that I had already Diigo bookmarked Google Fusion Labs on 26th August. This illustrates something I was observing with Steve the other day; that social bookmarking seems to be 'one-way'. In other words we all stuff things into Diigo, but why? Other than transitory email alerts to new bookmarks, I have no feel for emerging themes, or common bookmarks via Diigo. This is something the Knowledge Hub will no doubt surface in activity streams and emerging themes (I hope!)
CLMS provides a web-based repository for the storage, maintenance, distribution and mapping of code lists.
Code lists are definitive data standards used within databases and other software applications to organise and structure information.
So you've got some data that you'd like to be Linked Data? The principles are simple but the devil is in the detail. With PublishMyData our aim is to make it as easy as possible for you to go from an Excel file or CSV export from your database to high quality Linked Data, following the established standards and emerging best practices.
Perhaps more importantly though, we want to make sure that your data actually gets used.
