Jesse Weaver, Ph.D. Student, Patroon Fellow, Tetherless World Constellation, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~weavej3/, announces that:
I would like to bring to subscribers’ attention that Facebook now supports RDF with Linked Data URIs from its Graph API. The RDF is in Turtle syntax, and all of the HTTP(S) URIs in the RDF are dereferenceable in accordance with httpRange-14. Please take some time to check it out.
If you have a vanity URL (mine is jesserweaver), you can get RDF about you:
curl -H ‘Accept: text/turtle’ http://graph.facebook.com/
curl -H ‘Accept: text/turtle’ http://graph.facebook.com/jesserweaverIf you don’t have a vanity URL but know your Facebook ID, you can use that instead (which is actually the fundamental method).
curl -H ‘Accept: text/turtle’ http://graph.facebook.com/
curl -H ‘Accept: text/turtle’ http://graph.facebook.com/1340421292From there, try dereferencing URIs in the Turtle. Have fun!
And I thought everyone had moved to that other service and someone left the lights on at Facebook. 😉
No flames! Just kidding.
