SPARQL

Hi,

I am new to rdf and sparql and finding it hard to work on it in drupal as I could not find any tutorial for help.
I have downloaded the RDF, evoc,sparql, rdf cck modules. I have seen some powerpoints with page slide create sparql qurery with a box to write query and also provide end point. But I am not able to find it.

Am I missing any module here? Would really appreciate help on how to use sparql to query external databases.

Thanks

Reading into the area of semantic web applications, rdf, owl, etc. let me wonder about the lack of information you can get of the current state of development in this area. There doesn't seem to be a wide range of applications using OWL or even RDF. Therefore I'd like to know, what range you use rdf, owl & co for? Especially, how do you/ can imagine to, use Drupal for fürther applications?

My current project

This is the 5-minute "video from the future" demo presented by Dries in his State of Drupal keynote presentation at Drupalcon Boston 2008. The video demonstrates some of the mashup capabilities of an RDF and SPARQL-enabled Drupal as envisioned by Dries for the upcoming Drupal 7.x release. The version of the demo below includes the original narration by Ben Lavender (the audio from Dries's actual presentation is also available - the RDF material starts after the 52m:30s marker).

Following up on my previous post introducing the in-progress RDF API for Drupal 6.x, I'm going to be, bit by bit, posting some of the materials that I've earlier put together internally for the project this is being developed for. Development of this project is supported through M.C. Dean and MakaluMedia on behalf of their clients.

I've been working on an RDF API for Drupal 6.x for a few months now, but have been reluctant to much discuss it publicly until such time that I had something that was viable and (dare I say it) usable. Given that I've been fortunate enough to recently find funding for part of this work, and that certain key people (thanks Boris and Ivan) have encouraged me to be less of an introvert, I will in the immediate future be doing a series of posts about the project.
