New LOD Cloud Diagram and Data Set Statistics published

Hi all,

we are happy to announce the publication of a new version of the Linking 
Open Data (LOD) Cloud diagram.

You can find the September 2011 version of the cloud at 
http://lod-cloud.net along with a colored version and various formats.

Thanks a lot to everybody who contributed to the creation of the diagram 
by providing and updating the meta-information about the data sets on 
the Data Hub (http://thedatahub.org , formerly known as CKAN)!

Altogether, we have received sufficient metadata to include 311 datasets 
into the lodcloud group on the Data Hub. 295 of those form a connected 
cloud and are shown in the new diagram. The data sets in the LOD cloud 
consist of over 31 billion RDF triples and are interlinked by around 504 
million RDF links.

We are also happy to release new statistics about the structure of the 
LOD cloud as well as the compliance of the data sets in the cloud with 
the Linked Data best practices.
These statistics can be found at http://lod-cloud.net/state.

If you publish a Linked Data set yourself, please add it to the Data Hub 
so that we can include it in the next release of the LOD cloud diagram.

Cheers,

Anja, Richard and Chris
