I'm still mostly using Google searches, http://schemaweb.info/ and random serendipity to discover RDFS and/or OWL vocabularies. I can only imagine there is a more effective, more systematic way of doing it. Anyone?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried swoogle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swoogle) ?

I built http://schemacache.com, though to be honest, it is not yet as good as I would like it to be.

The SPARQL endpoint for it however, may be of interest for those precise queries.

The data is all in a Talis store http://api.talis.com/stores/schema-cache (the API is documented at http://n2.talis.com )

So if anyone wants to build an alternate front-end, please feel free!

There is a page for it on ESW wiki.

In case you didn't know it, you can restrict Google results to a particular file type: "filetype:owl".

If you are looking in the Biomedical domain there is the Bioportal (http://bioportal.bioontology.org/) maintained by the National Center for Biomedical Ontology (http://www.bioontology.org/) which allows you find, browse vocabularies. They have links to the originating websites where you can download many of these vocabularies.

I'm not sure that there is a better, more systematic way of doing it, though I agree there should be!

I have found this list useful: http://semanticweb.org/wiki/Ontologies
