What is Google Refine and how to Install it?

Google Refine is a open source tool for working with datasets, including but not limited to Freebase. According to David Huynh, Google Search Infrastructure, it can be used for: “cleaning up inconsistencies, transforming them from one format into another, and extending them with new data from external web services or other databases.”
