Hi Maria, Yes, we chose Protege to visualize ontologies not large data sets. We are currently experimenting with D3,js javascript libraries for visualizing data sets. ( see http://d3js.org/ ) By the way, we did not create the site I mentionend, rather we simply discovered the list in our scan of the web for tools for visualizing linked data. http://www.mkbergman.com/414/large-scale-rdf-graph-visualization-tools/ Cheers- Mike On 3/28/13 5:45 AM, Maria Maleshkova wrote: > Dear Mike, > > why did you settle for Protege?

This is part of the contributions of the European project EUCLID (http://www.euclid-project.eu), which aims to provide an educational curriculum for Linked Data practitioners. So far we have created training materials on introducing the Linked Data principles and application scenarios [1], and on querying Linked Data [2]. Currently we are working on covering visualization.
