Getting started

From semanticweb.org

This is a place for putting pointers to useful tutorials and resources for getting started with Semantic Web technologies. The intention is to make this a useful starting point for people who are completely new to semantic technologies. Resources on more specific topics should of cause rather appear on the respective pages.

Help is needed to make this a useful page for beginners. Please contribute.
