OpenCalais at Linked Data Planet – NYC
Tim June 18th, 2008
OpenCalais has made a strong showing here at Linked Data Planet – New York City. I’m currently sitting in their lunch presentation demonstrating the various tools they provide, and they’re quite impressive. Essentially, OpenCalais is a suite of various tools that will take plain-text and automatically embed metadata (such as Microformats) into it.
This blog is now “OpenCalais-enabled”. They have a Wordpress plugin called Tagaroo which reads your Wordpress blog entry as you type it, and automatically suggests tags for it. It also pulls down Flickr images based on these tags so they can be included with the entry. More in-depth review of these tools after the presentation!
