Re: rdfa vs. links

William ,

Your question motivated me to eventually carry out an experiment I thought
of a while ago. Now I got my act together and eventually published some
observations on the topic of HTML+RDFa load time dependencies on the number
of embedded triples [1]. I hope you find this useful ;)

Cheers,
      Michael
