I'm pleased to announce the first release of ProductDB: http://productdb.org/ ProductDB is a Linked Data view of ProductWiki.com (http://productwiki.com/), a community wiki oriented around consumer information for products. All wiki content is licensed under the GFDL. This first conversion contains product names, list prices, alternate names, reviews and links to external sites for over 20,000 products represented using a blend of GoodRelations, FOAF and OpenVocab. The product categorisation scheme has been converted using SKOS. There are about 500,000 triples in the dataset and since it is Linked Data, all the entities have URIs. For example: * http://productdb.org/apple-iphone * http://productdb.org/2006-porsche-boxster There are some owl:sameAs links to dbpedia resources, e.g. * http://productdb.org/asus-eee-pc-701 * http://productdb.org/shaun-of-the-dead We hope to improve cross-linkage to other datasets in the future. Talis provides a SPARQL end-point at: http://api.talis.com/stores/productdb/services/sparql Other services such as free-text search and faceting are linked from: http://api.talis.com/stores/productdb Cheers, Ian
