The Semantic Web has the power to transform the way readers find what they are looking for online -- whether they know they are looking for it or not.
For journalists, advances in the Semantic Web will dramatically change digital news. You’ll have the power to go beyond simple “tagging” and build rich connections among all your content: articles, images, motion and audio.
But how can online journalists consistently and comprehensively semantically tag and, more importantly, semantically associate assets? How can you thrive in the Semantic Web?
This Webinar, originally broadcast Jan. 28, 2009, will help you find out.
What Will I Learn:
- Tagging, taxonomies, authority files and knowledge bases
- How to expose this rich metadata to create a better user experience
- Ways to research or package news with greater ease
- Online tools and companies that can help Web editors and publishers automatically tag and associate
Who Should Take this Course:
This course is for anyone who knows that all the work involved in putting information on the Web means nothing unless you find ways to bring readers to it.
