Situation Analysis

Crowdsourced data published to social-network and social-media platforms is currently controlled solely by platform providers, thereby creating an unfair economic balance over data access and its management.

Simple Solution

Courtesy of RDF Language which, by virtue of its abstract nature, enables the creation and publication of machine- and human-comprehensible sentence construction using a variety of notations (e.g., RDF-Turtle or JSON-LD) wherever text input is supported, the challenges outlined above are resolved.

Here is a simple example demonstrating the use of Nanotaton to inject enhanced structured metadata into this LinkedIn post:

{

<#this> a schema:WebPage, schema:BlogPosting ;

schema:name "Using Nanotation to drive Data Flow across Data Silos";

schema:author <https://linkedin.com/in/kidehen#this> ;

schema:mainEntity <https://twitter.com/hashtag/Nanotation#this> ;

schema:mentions <https://twitter.com/hashtag/RDF#this>, <https://twitter.com/hashtag/DataSilo#this>, <https://twitter.com/hashtag/Web#this>, <https://twitter.com/hashtag/HTTP#this> ;

schema:about <https://twitter.com/hashtag/RWW#this>, <https://twitter.com/hashtag/LinkedData#this>, <https://twitter.com/hashtag/NoSilo#this> .

}
