WikiMap

Version 0.0.2 changelog
How does a wiki entry map to the world ?
Just enter a word, and see the result (from wikipedia) on a map.
Click on Search by Name to look for all DBpedia entries which have the selected word as a name or comment (as a property object).
Click on Search by URL to look for the precise wiki entry. Note: enter only the most spefic part of the URL ("France" instead of "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France".
Only the english version of Wikipedia is considered.
For each wiki entry considered, the system looks at all links in the page, and map the ones which referes to countries. Types information comes from DBPedia.
The map code is from Jon Combe, licenced under MIT licence.
Current version is all but optimized. At some point, it should only work client side via SPARQL.
It's case sensitive, and it may not work on all browsers!
