'''LinkedData Planet Spring 2008''' runs 17-18 June 2008 in New York, New York.


The evolution of the current Web of "linked documents" to a Web of "linked data" is steadily gaining mindshare among developers, architects, systems integrations, users, and the more than 200 software companies developing semantic web-oriented solutions. Organizations such as Adobe, Google, OpenLink Software, Oracle, the W3C, and the grassroots Linking Open Data community have actively provided technology and thought leadership during the embryonic stages of this evolutionary transition.  
The Web is evolving from linked documents to linked data. Developers and architects are adopting semantic web-oriented technology and publishing information from databases on the Web. Examples include OpenCalais, Zoominfo, Twine, social networks, DBpedia and web sites exposing machine-readable data using '''microformats''', RDFa, and GRDDL.


Notable examples on the Web today include, DBpedia, the Zoominfo search engine, the Bambora travel recommendation site, a number of social networking sites, numerous semantic web technology-based services, various linked data browsers, SPARQL query language and protocol-compliant data servers and data management systems, and a growing number of web sites exposing machine-readable data using microformats, RDFa, and GRDDL.
Tim Berners-Lee delivers a keynote address on June 17. Other speakers from industry and academia will discuss the technology behind the next generation of web and enterprise applications.
