Jim: Demo on maps of libraries uses dataset612 shows how quickly you can run into the limitations Run out of space very quickly Find where libraies are US census libraries from 2004.. with more time could have done summery on population how well is a community/county is servered by a library should be one, but not it can be different depaneding on where you are

Some of them seems to map in our countries in the world...don't know why this error happened

Click on library and it give you a name. Not all librarys are here. does not use triple store uses the rdf file.

Josh: Quering the foaf cloud Is link data scale free? the foaf graph being a social network...would it follow this. Large crawl, and many foaf files. Weakly linked...some nodes have very high inlinks If collows a power law should be a stright line...and we almost have that here with foaf

Not a random walk here.
