Ximian Dashboard with FOAF

Edd Dumbill [1] wrote a new backend to integrate his FOAFbot to Dashboard [2]; going right after the problem of actually putting \”information at your fingertips.\” Some more on the Ximian Desktop is also available from OSNews [3] as well as from Ximian of course [4].

According to Edd, FOAFbot [5] is an application that spiders FOAF files from the web and then answers questions about them.
