So that the links can immediately be followed is a feature for the humans
and not for the machines ? You think that the semantic web browser is the
killer app of the semantic web ? I already doubted that in another discussion
with you. The old fashioned web is much more suitable for humans than the
data web, IMO. (03)

I can. Replace the dereferencable URI with a non dereferencable GUID.
I still have a foreign key, the semantic web browser does not work any more
but what other semantic web application of today ceases to work ? (05)

The World Wide Web was built for humans, who can understand context and
meaning. The Semantic Web was built for humans too, but with machines as
intermediaries. I dare to claim that follow your nose is of limited use for
machines. (07)
