What's special about RDF?
Linked Data uses HTTP URIs to connect different pieces of data together. This makes it easy to identify when different people are describing the same person, book, or place. Many data sets have already been published as Linked Data using URIs including photos, biographical information, and bibliographic records from library catalogues.
