Announcing: Search DBpedia.org - Explore Linked Data

Hi all,
 
exploring the DBpedia [1] dataset and its linked data wasn't really
easy and intuitive to developers and end users.
To solve this problem was my primary object when I started
development of a combined search application and data browser.

The first prototype is now publicly available at
http://dbpedia.org/search/

It features full text search, faceted browsing, result
classification and much more.

Being a first prototype, there are some open issues and
performance limitations, but I hope you get the idea of bringing
together usability and structured data.

I've posted a short introduction of the project to my blog at [2]

I highly appreciate feedback and ideas for further improvements.

Cheers
Georgi
