Re: Joint session on vocabulary with Web of Things

Would be interested to hear more about the WoT meeting, since I was struck that the words “when” and “where” never appeared in their slide presentation of describing Things, but their scripting example included a spatial relationship anyway. It appears that they consider a “Thing” to be a sensing device, but it’s clear that use cases they are considering do involve the real world connection that we’ve been wrestling with.

Making data linkable, and crawlable by search engines should help discoverability. So should annotation with terms from schema.org <http://schema.org/>. How does the WoT group envisage TDs and TD repositories to be discoverable on the web?
