Authoring, annotations, and notifications in a decentralised Web
This tutorial covers some of the key components that are involved in authoring articles, Web Annotations, and Linked Data Notifications in a decentralised manner. The intention of this tutorial is to give hands on experience for researchers and annotators/reviewers, as well as librarians in how they can control their own Web profiles and data. During the tutorial, participants will create their own WebIDs, personal storage spaces, interact, and socially engage with documents in a number of different ways.
