  • Freebase - A wealth of free data

    ** I haven't fully got the hang of this yet, but it certainly is one of the most interesting looking things out there** In addition to reconciling many facets of one topic, the underlying structure of Freebase lets you run complex queries--that is, ask questions of the data--that are... more

    Jesus! Am I the only one who laughs at that name? Freebase? Are they on a DEA watchlist of any kind? In all seriousness, we don't need a second Wikipedia; I'm not sure the first was the greatest idea ever. Apparently there are some additional advantages that on second glance look a little helpful. Influence nodes and such. There are ways this could feasibly be not a complete waste of time.

    Whoa! I've just seen the future and it looks cool, and a bit scary. How will I ever pull myself away once it goes to beta?

    This is a must have tool for writers, bloggers, and students. It's like Wikipedia but instead of written articles it aggregates facts from all sorts of sources and you can search for more specific information (like all movies with 2 different actors or countries with oil as their main export). It's great for trivia junkies.

    ** I haven't fully got the hang of this yet, but it certainly is one of the most interesting looking things out there** In addition to reconciling many facets of one topic, the underlying structure of Freebase lets you run complex queries--that is, ask questions of the data--that are difficult or impossible to run in conventional databases. For example, if you ask Freebase for Jennifer Connelly films with actors who have appeared in a Steven Spielberg movie, you'll get a tidy list of eight movies. The extra-cool part is that if you're a developer, or just mildly technical, Freebase offers tools that make it easy to query and integrate the data into web apps, blogs, wikis, user pages or anything else that would benefit from an injection of structured information.
