These basic examples are crucial; which is why putting apps/services ahead of this crucial step ultimately obscures pathways to concept comprehension. I use Turtle (without prefixes and relative URIs) as a "best practice" for keeping triples in full view (without distraction) when trying to demonstrate what Linked Data enables. This approach should really apply to any new concept that's based on Linked Data. Once the concepts are understood (via minimalist examples), the utility of tools, apps, and services become obvious :-) -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen Founder & CEO OpenLink Software Company Web: http://www.openlinksw.com Personal Weblog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen Twitter/Identi.ca handle: @kidehen Google+ Profile: https://plus.google.com/112399767740508618350/about LinkedIn Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/kidehen
