Are you applying semantic technologies for web or enterprise applications? Do you have a problem or question related to RDF, SPARQL, taxonomies, ontologies or semantic technologies? Do you have a problem or question related to linked data, such as microformats, tagging content, or publishing linked data from SQL databases and content management systems?

We’re asking developers to submit their question or problems to the experts who’ll be teaching a hands-on workshop at LinkedData Planet 2008.
The workshop instructors will review the list of submissions and select those they will present in New York — with solutions.

Learn how the Semantic Web is changing the way we treat data at the LinkedData Planet Conference. Sir Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web and director of the W3C, is among the event’s keynote speakers.

The Linked Data Workshop runs on June 17 at the conference venue (Roosevelt Hotel, New York City). The workshop moderator is Bob DuCharme, Solutions
Architect, Author, and Conference Chair (Innodata Isogen). The instructors include:

Dr. Melliyal Annamalai, Principal Product Manager, Oracle

Michael Bergman, CEO, Zitgist LLC
