NYT leverages linked data

Posted on August 29, 2011 by Jennifer A. Liss

New York Times in the linked data world

New York Times in the linked data worldCurious about linked data in the wild? The New York Times is using linked data to power data visualization in its experimental project, Longitude. For more about the metadata under the hood, see this post by Longitude developer, Evan Sandhaus. Hint: the service relies upon controlled vocabularies.

Longitude is a result of the NYT’s linked open data initiative. See more at http://data.nytimes.com/.
