How to create connections between discussions using SIOC

SIOC provides dictionaries for content description and interaction: a semantic layer that can work with existing discussion platforms. Using SIOC creates various links with the specified resources, this opens up new data access methods:

• Virtual forums

  
  This can be a bunch of posts or discussion chains distributed across the discussion platform, for example, when a user has found a certain number of blogs, then the agents will offer him blogs with similar topics over time.

• Distributed conversations

  
  Trackback is often used to associate a post on a blog with previous or related topics. By creating links in both directions, not only to the blog, but also for all types of Internet discussions, the chains can be used regardless of which URI is loaded into the browser,
  

• United communities

  
  In addition to creating a web page with a number of links to blogs, forums, or people in a society, there is no standard way to determine what constitutes an online community (except for grouping people in FOAF or OPML) SIOC makes it easy to determine which objects are composite parts of the community, or tell which community the object belongs to (using sioc: has_part / part_of): users, groups, forums, blogs, etc.
  

• Common topics

  
  Technorati (Search Engine Blogging) and BoardTracker (for bulletin boards) used a system of text labels that people attached to their posts. SIOC allows the definition of such tags (using this property), but also allows hierarchical or non-hierarchical definition of topics using the sioc: topic, when the topic is ambiguous or more information is needed to describe it. SV combined with other web dictionaries topics and tags can be described using the SKOS organization system.
  

• One person, many accounts

  
  SIOC also aims to address the issue of multiple identities, allowing users to determine that they contain other accounts or that their accounts belong to a particular person (via foaf: holdsOnlineAccount or sioc: account_of). Therefore, all posts, or comments made by a particular person, related to the use of different user accounts on different platforms can be determined.
