Let's publish our foaf file and participate in the Social Web: the Web Architecture Compliant secure distributed Social Network . We will do the following:
- Each participant will write his own foaf file (it's easy)
- Publish that foaf file to a server (your own FreedomBox is best, but any server running apache will do :-)
- we will link each of our foaf files together
- tie that into OpenID thereby enhancing OpenId with Web of Trust information
- add a public key and login to sites that are WebID enabled
Come with your computer and the following software
- a text editor like vi or emacs
- a file browser ( unix 'ls' is perfect )
- a shell (bash, sh, tcsh, ms-dos,...)
- have Python installed
- cwm the python command line semantic web swiss army knife
- Java may be useful too to run the WebID Tool
- ssh or telnet client installed
Skills:
- know how to type
- basic command line knowledge
- use the editors chosen above
( For some background see the 10 minute WebID video)
