I have set up a public SPARQL node for web2web alpha testing. It is still not 100% synced, but less than 50.000 blocks away.
You can find the IP address at Github.com in the source code, or directly try it out here:
https://d5000.github.io/web2web/
If you access directly, index.html will try to load a pre-configured (basic) test website from torrent - while my torrent software is online, it should load; otherwise you should see "Torrent hash found".
If it doesn't reach this message, then probably your browser is blocking "mixed content" (or my Fuseki crashed); at the address bar it should be possible to disable it. The reason is that Github Pages enforces HTTPS for this test page, but the SPARQL server is reachable over HTTP. (I'm investigating if I can solve this; a HTTP test page at the slimco.in repository would be a short-term workaround.)
(The website looks very basic, but beautiful, modern websites with lots of CSS, images, SVG etc. are perfectly possible with this technique! It's only a test page and I'm a terrible web designer anyway
)
There is also a gateway.html which lets you enter Slimcoin addresses to look if there are publications. In ACME you can find a (very) short list here.
A question to the community: Do you think the name "Slimweb" is a good choice for a Slimcoin-based decentralized web? Unfortunately, it loses the reference to P2P that "web2web" has, but it's short and catchy. (Maybe: "Slimweb - the Slimcoin Web2Web" as a complete title would match both, and SW2W as a "cool" abbreviation)
PS: I have included all the new exchanges in the start post. Graham, you're totally right: one should be extremely careful with these sites and never hold big amounts there.

Like muf18 said I too am having a problem with loading the page. I am using Firefox 57 on Ubuntu 16.04. I can confirm that it not a seeding issue because instant.io successfully fetches the page (https://instant.io/#72bee23491482420009b90f42c10ca2f531e2e2d). This message pops up on the console after I disable the mixed content protection 'Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at wss://tracker.webtorrent.io/'.
I have been trying to publish a page from the address SUbv9jV3XrLFyzHsiTdf79pvkRNHW48kSr (https://bchain.info/SLM/tx/e825ef466863e490478f075501d8d27b76a66db1d741c66635c47827d126fccc) and your server keeps returning zero bindings when queried from gateway.html. I think its a syncing issue. Can you confirm?
I think that Web2Web has great potential and more than a few interesting applications.
