Kingsley,

Thanks for linking to your blog. I found it useful that you broke
things up into a Linked

Document Network, Linked Data Network, Linked Open Data, and Semantic
Linked Open Data.

You gave it a names, which made it easier to deal with. I hope to
someday spend a few

minutes talking to you and Tim Berners-Lee. Basically go to one of
those big WWW conferences.
