Here's all you need to know to start using N3 right now1). Allows RDF to be shown in a readable, natural, format.2). Reduces file sizes.3). You Can learn basic syntax by remembering a few rules.4). Basic syntax is enough for most situations.What are the Rules I need to know you ask?1). Resources must end with a period2). Use prefixes as much as possible3). End each triple with a semi-colon4).

Other times, the results were a bit off. Some like Example 5, (I knew True Knowledge would get this one before I asked) came back as expected. I didn't expect an answer for Example 6, but the query returned a normal

Looking back at some previous posts, OWL-S is the perfect choice for building processes around these technologies. If the data coming from a TiGRNET application (pics, weather, misc sensors) are defined in a ontology, discovery and processing could be done without much custom software using OWL-S.The OWL-S Ontology for Services provides a simple means of organizing TiGRNET data by profiles,

What else can I say other than I'd like my own personal TiGRNET. Maybe if everyone had this, the way people have Onstar when one buys a new car, we could all get realtime traffic. Accident pics could also be forwared to emergency services."TiGRNET makes the linkage between the photos and satellite maps by using embedded GPS location information in the pictures.
