Can anyone clarify my questions?

Hey guys,
 I couldnt follow the exact crux of semantic web.
How can a metadata of an attribute be represented in
triples.
And how uniquely the machine can extract the
information from the web through rdf files for its
context.
  Example:
          <foaf:person>
    Now foaf is the namespace where the person's
properties and "about person" are defined.But in some
other files the foaf may be directed to some other uri
so that the metadata for person is different.Or may
use the same uri for foaf but there the "person" has
different properties.My point is,there is no contraint
of using the namespaces.So how come this technology be
useful.

And i need a detail explanation about Reification.
Give some example of why , what , how and where to use
this reification.How come a triple be reified and when
it needs to be reified.

Thanx in advance,
bye.
