Why are people editing Wikipedia and Wikidata? What would it bring you if your products were globally linked to that knowledge graph and Google's machines would understand that metadata from the tiny JSON-LD snippet on each page? The t

What is "unsafe, untenable or hard" about embedding some JSON-LD (which is just some JSON metadata, transformed using a small JS library), like I did here: https://twitter.com/conzept__/status/15527190018

I'm building a front end app for Wikipedia & Wikidata called Conzept encyclopedia ( https://conze.pt ) based on semantic web pillars (SPARQL, URIs, various ontologies, etc.) and loving it so far. The semantic web is not d

Just tried it out. Looks nice (except for that unremovable crypto button on the toolbar), but I need SpeechSynthesis (TTS) support. Will stay with FF and use MS Edge for its excellent TTS. The search engine is pretty weak judging from my in

Yes, that would be very interesting. To "spatialize" all this knowledge and edutainment into something even more immersive, fun and social. Just having a simple VR/AR image-gallery viewing mode for the Wikipedia article image

Did not even know that was a thing people do. Middle-mouse-click will work for opening links in new tabs. I will see if I can add an handler for this. Thanks!

Thanks! I spend a lot of time tweaking the UX. Its not easy to build a fluid and fast experience (especially on mobile). The user base is still small, which is fine, as there are still many small issues to fix. I'm having a lot of fun
