Its the shortest route to Linked Data comprehension and appreciation. I 
say this for the following reasons:

1. human readable
2. intimidation factor is zilch
3. dispenses with artificial Linked Data Deployment hurdles such as:
     - domain name ownership
     - domain name server access and privileges
     - web server access and privileges
     - URI pattern design and debate .

All you needs is the ability to publish a document to the Web, and you 
are set re. 5-Star Linked Data.

A post about this "deceptively simple" format and notation for creating 
Linked Data resources:
