This is a strange statement - the framing example shows that the result is that to access the chapter title, you have to know, library->book->chapter->title. You can't just get the chapter title from a book without going through the whole library; books not in libraries don't exist. Graphs work named/indexed access, not by rooted traversal. That's the tradeoff being made - JSON-LD will give a way to publish specific data items as JSON and have a well-defined associated RDF triples. Great - tick. It's not a way to aggregate data from the web but that isn't the intention, AndyReceived on Thursday, 1 September 2011 07:28:13 UTC
