Re: Examples of applications built on LOD

Hello,

If it's about finding examples for laypersons, why not Apple's Siri, which
uses Wikidata
<https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2017-July/010919.html>? (or
the Google Knowledge graph <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowledge_Graph> of
course)
