RDF did not invent: 1. Triples 2. URIs 3. Use of URIs in Triple patterns as vehicle for "whole data representation" using graphs. It becoming excruciatingly painful to see who many have come to see RDF as meaning Linked Data Graphs. Or assuming, that without RDF we don't have Linked Data. Let's put RDF aside, and get people to understand how they can construct simple graphs using EAV/SPO triples that have de-referencable URIs in the S(E), P(A), and optionally O(V) slots. It simply doesn't have to be complex. It actually really dead simple, and in "deceptively simple" form. RDF was never about about "whole data representation" using hyperlinks, its definition evolved into this space from the initial metadata focus. Metadata and "whole data representation" aren't the same thing. Let's get back to the fundamentals. Doing that will ultimately help RDF. -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen President& CEO OpenLink Software Web: http://www.openlinksw.com Weblog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen Twitter/Identi.ca: kidehen
