Here's what's possible, even though ENS doesn't return Linked Data
directly: (02)
<http://linkeddata.uriburner.com/about/html/http/api.okkam.org/okkam-uri/profile/okkamuri?uri=eid-378ab306-2222-4ef1-a7d7-5c5860a73fbb> (03)
I've basically used the description of their HTML document to set the
launch point for deeper follow-your-nose exploration based on an
initially shallow entity relationship graph. (04)
If ENS simply leveraged HTTP URI for Entity Names, follow-your-nose
exploration would start at a much richer point in their particular
Web-accessible data space. (05)
The power of Linked Data as a generic API mechanism is still an issue
that remains mercurial to those that take the programmer oriented API
route. (06)
