As a compliment to the most recent Linked Data Design Issues note by TimBL, I would like to add this subtle tweak
to the enumerated rules:
- Identify or Name things using HTTP URIs
- Describe things using the RDF metadata model
- Increase link data mesh density on the
Web by
linking (referring) to things in other data spaces using their HTTP
URIs.
If you perform the steps above, on any HTTP network (e.g.
World Wide Web), you implicitly bind the
Names/Identifiers of things to negotiable representations of their
metadata (description) bearing documents.
Also note, you can create and deploy the resulting RDF metadata
using any of the following approaches:
-
RDFa within (X)HTML documents
- N3, Turtle, TriX, RDF/XML etc. based documents
- Programmatically generated variants of 1&2.
