I went to Hamsey Green school in the 1970s.
Looking in the UK Govt datasets, I see it is listed there with a homepage of ‘http://www.hamsey-green-infant.surrey.sch.uk’ (which doesn’t seem to work).
Some queries I’m trying via the SPARQL dataset (I’ll update this post if I make them work…)
First a general query, from which I found the URL [...]
Anyone who has recently bought an Apple computer probably has one or more Apple Remotes.
I have been learning how to access them. Conclusion: iremoted does 95% of what you probably need, and the discussion over on cocoadev.com tells you more than you probably wanted to know. My experiments are written up in a corner of [...]
In the NoTube project, we are exploring the use of Semantic Web technology in Television and Web-TV scenarios. By making use of richer and linked descriptions of content and users, we hope to help users better find (and annotate, tag, cross-link etc.) content that is interesting to them. The growing amount of linked RDF data [...]
It’s hard to keep secrets in today’s increasingly interconnected, networked world. Social network megasites, mobile phones, webcams and inter-site syndication can broadcast and amplify the slightest fragment of information. Data linking and interpretation tools can put these fragments together, to paint a detailed picture of your life, both online and off.
This online richness creates offline [...]
From Twitter in the last few minutes, a chaos of echo’d posts about army moves. Just a few excerpts here by copy/paste, mostly without the all-important timestamps. Without tools to trace reports to their source, to claims about their source from credible intermediaries, or evidence, this isn’t directly useful. Even grassroots journalists needs evidence. I [...]

From Sander van Zoest at Uncensored Interview, a convention for representing MusicBrainz identifiers using Flickr’s Machine Tag mechanism.
Example:
A photo of Matthew Dear, tagged as follows:
musicbrainz:mbid=3d191c12-be64-4f90-94d8-ac324b2b3544
wikipedia:en=Matthew_Dear
It also includes a Wikipedia identifier which could be used to link to DBpedia (though this might duplicate information also available within MusicBrainz’s advanced relationships system). There must be many 1000s [...]
“Because most of the targeted employees were male between the ages of 20 and 40 we decided that it would be best to become a very attractive 28 year old female. We found a fitting photograph by searching google images and used that photograph for our fake Facebook profile. We also populated the profile with [...]
