    RDF, Meta-models and Lisp
    
   
    
     Bill de Hora has a really good post on why is RDF useful, based in the context of quantifying the RDF Tax on Atom.  Sometimes its not the knowing of a story, it's the telling of it, and I think that Bill's telling of the RDF story is helpful (at least it was to me).  Aside from some enlightenment on RDF, I found this quote:

    We'll start with a standard device for any technology that is not widely adopted - draw a spurious analogy to it and Lisp.We'll always be the whipping boys...
   
       
       
       Ted,
Just to be clear, making spurious connections between RDF and Lisp in my book puts RDF in a good light :)
