Title: No Better on Second Read
Review: In June 2012, I re-read this book, copyrighted in 2003. When I first read Practical RDF in mid-2000's, I noticed inconsistencies among text, examples, and graphics that threw me for a loop. I've read the earlier reviews and these inconsistencies have thrown a number of other readers.I would, however, heartily recommend part of chapter 2 RDF: Heart and Soul, pages 14-21 (before author engages in URI). I less heartily recommend chapters 5 and 6, pages 83 - 131 on RDF vocabularies. The last 60%, Chapters 7 - 15, pages, 132 - 318, refer to old tools and the like. The book could be re-written & updated in a longish article.On a lighter side, I can confirm the author's last statement:Google still returns the author's article in response to the search terms"giant squid legends Nessie".
Is the review positive or negative?
