There are already various interesting open data sets available on the Web. Examples include Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Geonames, MusicBrainz, WordNet, the DBLP bibliography and many more which are published under Creative Commons or Talis licenses. The goal of the W3C SWEO Linking Open Data community project is to extend the Web with a data commons by publishing various open data sets as RDF on the Web and by setting RDF links between data items from different data sources. RDF links enable you to navigate from a data item within one data source to related data items within other sources using a Semantic Web browser. RDF links can also be followed by the crawlers of Semantic Web search engines, which may provide sophisticated search and query capabilities over crawled data. As query results are structured data and not just links to HTML pages, they can be used within other applications. This will be added to Statistics Resources and Big Data Subject Tracer™.

MicroTokenization™ techniques are the newest method of information security and innovative methodology for data protection. It has evolved data protection technology to new levels never before accomplished. It works off an entirely different premise. Just the opposite of “Bulk Encryption”, the MicroTokenization™ approach protects sensitive data individually, even down to the “Byte” level if that is what is desired and or programmed. MicroTokenization™ maintains speed and accessibility while providing the highest level of security known to the public sector. This modular technology is completely scalable, adaptable, and accessible, and has been designed to meet future needs and evolve with the new best practice in the security world. The core elements of the technology follow along with long enforced and tried methods used by the US Armed Forces and technology powerhouses, but put together in a new innovative and proprietary way. By MicroTokenizing data, the data remains both usable while simultaneously exceeding industry security standards as well as regulation. The creators of this technology come from a respected technology company by the name of TransCertain, LLC. This is an incredible advancement in the way we will think about data protection going forward.

In the Featured Videos, visitors can learn about some recent explorations into education reform, deep sea explorations, and the Higgs boson. Scrolling down the site, visitors will notice that the videos are divided into seven sections, including Engineering, Environment, and Medicine. It's easy to see how these videos could be effectively used in a number of classroom situations to complement existing lectures and presentations. New users might do well to start with the "Alya Red: A Computational Heart" video and the rather thoughtful "California Meteorite Rush."

OECD's work spans the world and features a team of economists, sociologists, and others working on problems as diverse as higher education, access to clean water, and energy policy. The OECD Working Papers Series spans 19 crucial areas, including agriculture, development, environment, finance, and health care. Visitors should definitely check out the Tourism papers, as they include the compelling work "Green Innovation in Tourism Services." The Local Economic and Employment (LEED) papers are quite good as well, covering timely topics like urban governance and regional policy decision making. Visitors can sign up to receive updates about new papers as they are released to the site. This has been added to Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

The World Bank has created this massive archive to bring together all of its "research outputs and knowledge products." The Open Knowledge Repository (OKR) was created to improve access to these materials, and the hope is that the archive will allow "anyone in the world to use Bank knowledge to develop solutions to development problems that will help improve the lives of those living in poverty." Currently, there are over 9,200 works online, including all of the World Development Reports from 1978 to the present, the Policy Research Working Papers series from 2005 to the present, and myriad other publications. Visitors can use the Browse area to look around sections that include Collections, Authors, Topics, Titles, and Author Profiles. One rather interesting feature here is the Map area, which tracks the countries that have downloaded the most papers from the OKR.
