Not sure in which camp I'm in though ;) Maybe in the camp #4: using linked data in the simplest possible way, that is, assigning HTTP URIs to all entities of interest, which makes them available and discoverable on the Web. Then, leave the RDFisation and interlinking process up to tools (such as surveyed in RDB2RDF [1]) and/or piggyback CMS and social media sites, where users contribute the interlinking (manually) anyway, such as with Drupal [2]. Cheers, Michael [1] http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/rdb2rdf/RDB2RDF_SurveyReport.pdf [2] http://www.buytaert.net/rdfa-and-drupal Ken,
