Moveek: a semantic social network

We know that it is difficult to create semantic-web content because pages must be semantically annotated through processes that are mostly manual and require a high degree of engineering skill. We must therefore devise means for transforming existing, non-semantic social networks into semantic social networks. We propose using information extraction ontologies to handle this challenge. In this work we show how a successful ontology-based data-extraction technique can automatically generate semantic annotations for social networks. We have implemented a prototype of our approach to demonstrate that our proposal works.
