Extended definition:
"An Information Service is this part of an Information System that serves data/knowledge/information to customers and collects it
from its contributors, to manage and store it by optionally using administrators."
Please refer also this article[1] about the definition of the term 'Information Service'.
This concept is for linking a piece of information of a specific concept instance (or at least website links or other data representations
of this concept instance), e.g. a foaf:Agent, a mo:Track or a mo:MusicArtist to a related website of a specific information service (modelled
as individual of is:InfoService), e.g. Wikipedia, MySpace, MusicBrainz, Discogs, Last.fm, Pandora, BBC, ... . With this concept it is possible
to describe the underlying information services of that knowledge representation more in detail, so that the client, which consumes that
'linked data' could choose, which source it likes to use by evaluating the description of the information service of that website link or
other data representation.
Please use for further is:InfoService instances the namespace "http://purl.org/ontology/is/inst/".
