A browser extension to read annotations on a scholarly Webpage

[pheyvaer]

Pitch

Users go to a Webpage with scholarly information and they see annotations from themselves and others users. These annotations are stored in the pods of the respective users. They are queried when the page is visited and displayed on the appropriate locations on the page. We assume that the all annotations are public for this challenge.

Desired solution

SELECT * FROM a_trusted_set_of_pods WHERE {
   ?a a ex:Annotation;
      ex:target <current_webpage_url>.
}

in which a_trusted_set_of_pods can be a list of my FOAF friends, but also take comments from one or more trusted comment hubs.

Acceptance criteria

1. I install a browser extension.
2. I go to a scholarly page.
3. I see annotations that are stored on trusted Solid pods based on a list of FOAF friends.

Pointers

• This involves the collector and EventLog spec of Mellon.
