Good tutorial giving an Introduction into the Web of Data held by Metaweb at the Web 2.0 Summit

Hi,

I just scanned though the slides of the "Creating Semantic Mashups: Bridging 
Web 2.0 and the Semantic Web" tutorial that Jamie, Colin and Toby from 
Metaweb held at the Web 2.0 Summit.

See: http://en.oreilly.com/webexsf2008/public/schedule/detail/2961

Gives a great overview about the ideas behind the Web of Data and relates 
them nicely to classic Web applications and the Web 2.0 mashups.

Worth reading!

Abstract:

This tutorial will identify how the architecture of participation can be 
extended by combining open data and open source semantic technologies. We 
will use simple, hands-on examples to expose participants to semantic 
techniques that are possible today. The tutorial will culminate by working 
through the development of a semantic widget for movie reviews that makes 
use of the techniques described.

Cheers

Chris
