2009-05-31 to 2009-06-04 The ESWC09 workshop SPOT2009 on 'Trust and Privacy on the Social and Semantic Web' was a great success. Thanks to all people submitting their works and the brilliant discussion on-site. Further, Martin Hepp and gave a full-day tutorial, The Web of Data for E-Commerce in One Day: A Hands-on Introduction to the GoodRelations Ontology, RDFa, and Yahoo! SearchMonkey. Finally, I co-ordinated the Lightning Talks at ESWC09.  
2009-04-20 to 2009-04-24 On Monday, 20 April Alexandre Passant and I gave the first edition of the Hello Open World - The Web of Data for the Pragmatic Developer tutorial at WWW09. 
As well on Monday, we presented three papers at the LDOW09: one which would be presented by Raphael Troncy (Interlinking Multimedia), one done by Giovanni Tummarello (DING! Dataset Ranking using Formal Descriptions), and finally the one on voiD, presented by myself. 
On Wednesday, 22 April there was the official opening and then we had a Birds of a Feather (BOF) meeting on a Research Agenda For Linked Data yielding a TOP10 list of research issues as well as a proposal for LOD intra-community liaison officers. 
On Friday, 24 April we had a great time at the W3C Social Web Camp, incl. microblogging discussions and good progress on 'enabling a read-write Web of Data' with Oshani Seneviratne and Tim Berners-Lee.   
2009-03-05 Gave a Tutorial on Linked Data - A Practical Introduction today, here at DERI - great questions and feedback. 2008-11-25 to 2008-11-26 The second VoCamp ever in Galway, Ireland - great people, lots of work got done and plenty of good discussions. We finalised voiD!   2008-10-26 to 2008-10-30 The 7th International Semantic Web Conference, Karlsruhe, Germany (ISWC08) was just great and very busy for me: a workshop paper at the Social Data on the Web workshop SDoW08, nice lightning talks (see also video captures) and two tutorials: On the first day (26 Oct) I gave the RDFa - Bridging the Web of Documents and the Web of Data tutorial (see also video captures) and on the second day (27 Oct), together with Chris Bizer, Tom Heath, Richard Cyganiak and Olaf Hartig the How to Publish Linked Data on the Web tutorial, again see also video captures. They also had a nice idea to support discussions: a dedicated social network.   2008-10-22 and 2008-10-23 So, we had a very successful first Web of Data Practitioners Days (WOD-PD08) in Vienna, Austria with over 40 participants from all over Europe.   2008-09 TRIPLE-I 08 conference: JR stand and LOD Triplification Challenge at I-Semantics 2008. 2008-09-01 Danny Ayers from Talis quizzed me (podcast, some 20min) 2008-06 ESWC 2008, Tenerife, Spain. Met many interesting people and had really good discussions. Presented User Contributed Interlinking at the 4th Workshop on Scripting for the Semantic Web and a short paper at the First Workshop on Semantic Interoperability in the European Digital Library. Finally, at the poster session it was time to show i r s; fun without network.
