Ooops!
Should have said:
A hyperlink (e.g., HTTP URI) is just a kind of identifier (naming
mechanism) for entity identification. That's fundamental, in regards to
Web Architecture. Look closely are <link/>, "Link:", and various
notations associated with RDF, in all cases you are looking at different
representations of entity relationships types facilitated by a
predicate/property/relation.
<link rel="{some-relation} .../> is how this is achieved in HTML.
Basically, @rel indicates Relation, and the {some-relation} indicates
the relation identifier (be it IANA registered relations or others
identified by HTTP URIs).
