The Friend of a Friend (FOAF) project

 

Friends of a Friend

The Friend of a Friend (FOAF) project is creating a Web of machine-readable pages describing people, the links between them and the things they create and do. The FOAF project began early in 2000 as an experimental linked information project, created by Dan Brickley and Libby Miller.

The primary technical documentation for the core FOAF vocabulary is the FOAF specification. The FOAF Wiki and documentation webpages provide more informations about the project.
