Yes, it is a separate thing representable as a Data Object. Now the 
obvious question: what is a Web Page? Isn't that a sourced from Data at 
an Address that's streamed to a client that uses a specific data 
presentation metaphor as basis for user comprehension?

Are the following identical or different, re. URI functionality ?

1. http://dbpedia.org/resource/Linked_Data
2. http://dbpedia.org/page/Linked_Data
3. http://dbpedia.org/data/Linked_Data.json .

I may want to bookmark: http://dbpedia.org/page/Linked_Data, I may also 
be interested in its evolution over time via services lime memento [1] .

The thing is that re. WWW we have an Information Space dimension and 
associated patterns that's preceded the Data Space dimension and 
emerging patterns that we (this community) are collectively trying to 
crystallize, in an unobtrusive manner.
