It's more than just VoID, every community around the sem web has been doing that hand waving. At the core, it's really very simply, things change over time, and as humans we like to refer to something that changes over time, or know where something has came from, or know where something is to be put, or know more about something, for all those reasons the simplest thing to do is to give a name for that thing, and virtually every use case breaks down to a named-g-box when you look at it. best, nathan
