The PURL space is pretty handy (info at http://www.purl.org, thanks to Dan Brickley again for pointing it out), but tends to be pretty long. I can use ISBN's as well, but since there's no catalog for these things and no requirement that it point anyplace, I have a hard time feeling that these identifiers are reliable and/or meaningful. I realize they don't have to be "reliable" or meaningful; I just wish they were given some kind of meaning I could use to find out more about a particular namespace.
