A few tweaks to the above, typed in haste: Programming is about orchestrated Create, Update, Delete operations against Data via Addresses. Programming languages facilitate the above. Programming languages interface with host operating systems. Linked Data is about data representation that leverages "data access by reference". REST is about a form of CRUD orchestration against network addresses (URLs), where data representation is negotiable and addresses hackable, courtesy of URL abstraction. REST and Linked Data is a form of Distributed Computing with Data Objects that many efforts failed to deliver in the past e.g., CORBA. It is good old basic stuff but at InterWeb (network) scales. -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen President& CEO OpenLink Software Web: http://www.openlinksw.com Weblog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen Twitter/Identi.ca: kidehen
