In trying to find Kingsley Idehen's morning keynote presentation online (found; see previous post), I stumbled across his blog at OpenLink Software. Lots of great info, including links to an interview we did with him and Dr. James Hendler of RPI (also a speaker here).

One thing that caught my eye on Kingsley's blog is "the first of a series of posts geared towards showcasing practical use of the burgeoning Linked Data Web." In it he provides five examples from the Library of Congress of "linked data in action," which, in the end, is what the typical IT pro would be interested in.

Also, Kingsley answers a couple of questions -- whether he dreamed them up to help make a point or came from actual people, I don't know. They are:

1. If you wanted to provide a bewildered but still curious novice a public example of Linked Data at work in their everyday life, what would it be?

2. What would you show the CEO or CTO of a company outside the tech industry?

That second one seems to be of particular relevance to many Datamation readers, I would think. It's worth checking out if you're trying to figure out what linked data and semantic web technology will mean to you and your enterprise.
