FoaFSpace

I’ve just submitted the FOAF export from boards.ie and boards.jp to a new crawler, FoaFSpace. I’m looking forward to when the community graph feature works… Here’s the announcement from creator Gene McCulley:

RDF folks, I have built a foaf search engine and put it at www.foafspace.com. I have not yet finished the smushing mechanism, so the engine currently returns more entries than desired. It still has some problems with the occasional RDF file. Other than that, it is mostly stable. I would appreciate any feedback regarding desired features and bugs found. Thanks.

    It did a pretty good job on the crawling, considering one URL was initially given for boards.ie and boards.jp:

    FoaFSpace hosts

    Here are the top 20 hosts in terms of the number of FoaF files that have been spidered.
