Currently it only shows single example for 'external' type of resource
linked with as:object. I see need for much more in depth section on
using 'external vocabularies', including types of:

* activity itself: schema:LikeAction etc.
* actor: foaf:Person, schema:Person,
http://w3c.github.io/web-annotation/model_fpwd/static.html#agents
* result: gr:Offering, schema:Comment, schema:Photograph

I think we could also try to take a look at microformats2 versions of
those examples
