Accessible Data? An Exposed Web App? A web app which exposes it’s data in standard ways?

I am not neccesarily myself convinced that RDF is always the ‘best’ way to do this — at least not within a certain real world project where benefits and costs have to be balanced within externally set limits. But actually, I’m not even convinced that RDF is always the easiest for consumers to deal with either. Although I guess in an ideal world, we’d always have RDF _plus_ something else that might be easier for a consumer in a given context — because I think RDF is an experiment well worth engaging in, although I’m less convinced of the ultimate success of this experiment than some Linked Data boosters. But, back in the real world… we don’t always have the resources to do things ideally. The important thing to me is exposing your data, not how you do it. Exposed Data?

I would, of course, have to agree. I am convinced that RDF is almost certainly the ‘best’ way to do this… but it is definitely not the ‘only’ way. To suggest otherwise is unnecessary, unwise, and – ultimately – unhelpful.
