Hi all, there is an interesting discussion on rest-discuss [1] going on whether new media types are evil or not. In that context, once again the need for a "single new media type; one that combines JSON:s simple expressiveness with native support for hyperlinks!" came up. I replied [2] and mentioned JSON-LD as one that supports exactly that. One of the first reactions was once again that JSON-LD == RDF and that it is not minimal and simple [3]. I think by showing some examples later in that thread I was at least partly able to show that that's not the case. Nevertheless, people seem to prejudge JSON-LD by simply putting it in the same corner as RDF and "all that other complex Semantic Web stuff".
