Hi.
We built a proof of concept a while back to test out some ideas around
this area. You can see it here:
http://www.semanticmuseum.com
It is built using semantic technology based on Mediawiki rather than
Wordpress. The idea is that all the key properties of an object are
automatically linked by the system and then used as filter and
navigation elements. It provides a very interactive user experience and
allows users to naturally follow paths through the site they might not
necessarily have thought of.
I'd be interested in hearing your initial impressions on this.
Best regards
Neill.
