About Tracker

=============

 

Tracker is a semantic data storage for desktop and mobile devices.

Tracker uses W3C standards for RDF ontologies using Nepomuk with

SPARQL to query and update the data.

 

Tracker is a central repository of user information, that provides two

big benefits for the user; shared data between applications and

information which is relational to other information (for example:

mixing contacts with files, locations, activities and etc.).
