Well, this is part of the same representation problem as usual... once again, the general rule is:- [[[ Not everything has a URI, as you can talk about something by just using its properties. But using a URI allows other documents and systems to easily reuse your information. - http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/Primer Tue, 20 Mar 2001 02:12:36 UTC ]]] So you could represent Dan as an anonymous node:- [ a :Person; :name "Daniel W. Connolly"; :hasHomepage <http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/> ] . But, as TimBL says "using a URI allows other documents and systems to easily reuse your information", so that by giving these bunch of properties a URI they become easier to reuse:- :DanC a :Person; :name "Daniel W. Connolly"; :hasHomepage <http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/> ] . > (The Semantic Web) > isA Context ; > uri http://www.sciam.com/2001/0501issue/0501berners-lee.html ; Blargh; it looks like you've reserved the right to use that URI to identify the SW! Personally, I prefer the SW activity page [1], but each to his or her own, I guess :-) [1] http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/ -- Kindest Regards, Sean B.
