Question is for the Presentation: James Journal Presentation
Question is asked by: Joshua Shinavier
The Question is: In the introduction, it is stated that user profiles in centralized social networking services "cannot be exported in machine processable formats". Why not? As is mentioned in the paper, there are several large producers of FOAF, for example, my.opera.com. It's not necessarily true that such systems "do not let users to control the information they provide on their own terms", either. In fact, centralized services may be some of the best potential sources for well-formed Semantic Web data.
