With respect to the interoperability and interlinking of social media platforms, various vocabularies such as Friend Of A Friend (FOAF) [35], Semantically Interlinked Online Communities (SIOC) [36], CommonTag, have been provided to enable common representation of social content across applications, following the vision of Social Semantic Web that is given in Ref. [37]. However, while they are already adopted as reference vocabularies, they are still not widely deployed on the Web. Thus, there is a need for applications to enable easy translation of the existing platforms to Web 2.0 data, as well as for frameworks to enable automated, effortless publishing of Web media content based on those vocabularies.
