After a week spent wondering why some RDF people seem intent on
colonizing XML while some relational database people seem intent on
blasting it as a false god, I've posted a piece that takes a brief look
at different options for representing, storing, and processing
information - and come to the odd conclusion that they're all useful, if
very different and not necessarily combinable.

What we do here is a lot more than "just data".
