I am building https://learnawesome.org

It's an attempt to organize world's knowledge. Right now, it looks like GoodReads-like social network for learning resources organized by topics, formats, difficulty levels etc. But there's a knowledge-graph that separates ideas and the medium those ideas are expressed in. For eg: "Sapiens - the book" and "TED Talk given by Yuval Harari" are connected to the same node.

This idea isn't anything new. Here is Danny Hillis talking about it at OSCON 2012: https://youtu.be/wKcZ8ozCah0

The code is open-source on github: https://github.com/learn-awesome/learn/



Nice ideas and good work.

I’ve put down various ideas and links about constructing and testing knowledge graphs here https://wiki.secretgeek.net/dependency-graph-for-knowledge

Good luck with what you’re doing.
