Abstract :
Weaving the semantic Web requires that humans contribute their labor and judgment for creating, extending, and updating formal knowledge structures. Hiding such tasks behind online multiplayer games presents the tasks as fun and intellectually challenging entertainment. The games we´ve presented are the first prototypes of the OntoGame series. We´re extending and improving the scenarios in several directions.
