a twist on the guitar-shopping/hReview use case: hotel reviews

I keep an archive/log of conferences and trips
  http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/events/

I little while ago I took the contact records
of hotels on several of those trips and exported
them from my PDA into hCards on that page. Some
of them have little review notes. With a few tweaks,
I could turn them into proper hReviews.

Suppose you're travelling to Edinburgh or Boston
or something sometime soon... would you like
to be able to do a query for

	What does Dan Connolly think of hotels
	in the Boston area?

I also keep a certain amount of social network data
there using XFN. So you could find people I know
from there too. So I should be able to ask

	What do my colleagues think of hotels
	in the Vancouver area?

I think it would be fun to flesh out the details
of this use case... make it more of a "here's how
we did it" than an "imagine if..." sort of thing.

Is anybody else interested to publish a few hotel hReviews?
Or to work out some of the hosting details and technical
details?

We could set up a

	What do GRDDL WG members think of
	hotels near ?WHERE

service. Maybe we could extend it to restaurants.

I wonder if the XMLArmyKnife is the only SPARQL
service out there that does GRDDL so far.
