Habbo: March On Government Group Page

http://www.habbo.co.uk/groups/marchongovernment

March is the month to think about what matters, start a debate, get involved in the solution, take action and pass it on. From climate to careers, from volunteering to youth clubs, you can make a real difference in your area. We'd like you to be vocal about the issues that matter most to you. Meet with other Habbos about how you can fix the issue, then convince others to join in and take up the cause.

Linked Data visualisation: Mapping the UK's Research & Intellectual Property

http://bis.clients.talis.com/

The Department of Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) has worked with Talis and the Research Councils UK, the Funding Councils, Intellectual Property Office (IPO) and Technology Strategy Board (TSB) to gather data on networks and patents. This information has been linked during the project to demonstrate how the data could be used in the future so that when a business - eg a potential inward investor - asks for hard facts on the clusters of excellence in a specific technology area, the leading universities and firms in that space are identifiable at the click of a button. This type of mapping is being piloted for stem cell research, RFID, advanced composite materials and plastic electronics - all areas of UK excellence. This is the first output of a major project to map the information available about the UK's Intellectual Property. More background at: http://blogs.talis.com/nodalities/2010/02/linked-data-visualisation-launched-at-prime-ministers-conference.php
