Progress

Warming up:

Set up DBpedia mirror: DONE

DBpedia datasets import (blogpost):
- Opensource Virtuoso server up and running locally
- imported most English DBpedia 3.8 datasets (except pagelinks and some problematic datasets)

Install DBpedia plugin in Virtuoso: TODO (next)

Work:

AngularJS:

Researched AngularJS and BackboneJS. AngularJS seems more powerful, but also heavier and "opiniated".
- I like how the pieces work together in AngularJS better than in BackboneJS
- AngularJS has an explicit Controller and is actually a MVC (unlike Backbone)
- but still needs some research (e.g. hashless routing)
Got AngularJS working to fetch entities from DBpedia SPARQL endpoints and results from the Lookup service. Still very basic, but AngularJS works. Routing with hash works.
