This is exciting stuff. Without ever explicitly talking RDF we’d built a site that complied with Tim Berners-Lee’s four principles for Linked Data:
(1) Use URIs as names for things.
(2) Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up those names. -
(3) When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information
(4) Include links to other URIs
In fact, as the BBC web developers argue,
considering how best to build websites we’d recommend you throw out the Photoshop and embrace Domain Driven Design and the Linked Data approach every time. Even if you never intend to publish RDF it just works. The longer term aim of this work is to not only expose BBC data but to ensure that it is contextually linked to the wider web.
The idea is to free web of data.
BBC Gets It.
