[humanities-dev] Open Knowledge Fest

Hi all,

it has been a very interesting hackday yesterday!
Just a quick update:
I did't see people working on Annotator, but this is related....
we have been hacking on Pundit (http://thepund.it) to support europeana and
bibserver as data sources (vocabularies). We created a bookmaklet to test
it: in practice what you can do is establishing links from text to
Europeana items. The same with bibserver, but we still have some
technicalities to fix :-/
If someone is interested we set up a page here
http://thepund.it/okfest.phpto hopefully collect some feedback... and
help us improve the tool.

best

Christian
