This presentation introduces the main principles of Linked Data, including the underlying technologies and background standards. It provides basic knowledge for how data can be published over the Web, how it can be queried, plus possible use cases and benefits. The development of a music portal (based on the MusicBrainz dataset) which facilitates access to a wide range of information and multimedia resources relating to music is presented as an example. This video is part of a larger Euclid Project module: http://www.euclid-project.eu/modules/chapter1.html
