2: Drill Down
- the Semantic Web uses Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) to name things
- these can typically be resolved to get more information about the resource
- example:
http://www.daml.org/people/mdean/#Dean
- this essentially creates a web of data analogous to the web of text
created by the World Wide Web
- ontologies are represented using the same structure as content
- we can resolve class and property URIs to learn about the ontology
