E-Commerce
- BestBuy has started to publish 450,000 item descriptions, which are updated on a daily basis
- BestBuy is publishing detailed information on "open-box" items (e.g. products used in the showroom or returned) and their discounted prices on a per-store level (!) in GoodRelations and RDFa. In other words, you can now check which discounted refrigerators are available in your favourite BestBuy store.
- Sitemap index: http://stores.bestbuy.com/openbox-sitemaps.
- Note that as of March 20, 2010, only 54 of the 1000+ stores are participating, but this is expected to rise quickly.)
- A detailed report and background info is available from Jay Myer's blog
- O'Reilly has started to add GoodRelations in RDFa to their production Web site. To our knowledge, all individual book pages like http://oreilly.com/catalog/<ID> contain GoodRelations in RDFa
- Example: http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596007683
- Sitemap: http://oreilly.com/sitemap.xml (Note: This returns a compressed file, mind the content encoding of the representation)
- http://www.shopforia.com/ uses GoodRelations in RDFa for 104,000 items in 26 categories (only on the individual items pages):
- Example: http://www.shopforia.com/cgi-bin/apf4/apf4.cgi?Operation=ItemLookup&ItemId=B002GYWHSQ
- Sitemap: http://www.shopforia.com/sitemap.xml (the sitemap seems incomplete at this stage)
- C-Paintings, an online store for hand-made oil paintings and framed art with 20,000 items described using GoodRelations in RDFa
- Peek & Cloppenburg, a major German retailer for clothing with stores all across Europe, has added GoodRelations in RDFa to the individual store
pages. The interesting thing is that they expose both opening hours and "brand availability", e.g. data on which garment labels will be available, on a
per-store basis.- Example: http://www.peek-cloppenburg.de/service-kontakt/p-c-haeuser/standort/?no_cache=1&locationId=a1u6sdntb8&iso=DE&rbpwbrdet=az
- Sitemap: Unfortunately, there is no sitemap available.
- The data has some flaws (invalid time values etc.), but we hope they will be fixed soon.
