[ok-scotland] another linked open knowledge project

Wed Jun 23 12:07:37 UTC 2010

with reference to the email xchange below
If someone is up to some work, I would like to

a) find a better way of sharing the valuable knowledge that Denise produces
everyday (some decent repository for her links)
b) link the links between them in a meaningful way (so that they become
knowledge, rather than just pointers to bits of info)
for example, relating the link to other related links (apparently that s
open to interpretation)

if someone has anything in Mind please share thoughts

cheers :-)
