Tim Berners-Lee’s Summary
I have a FOAF (Friend-of-a-friend) file, http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card and a URI for myself, A URI for me is http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/card#i
The FOAF system is open -- a web of people, no matter which communities they belong to, crossing community boundaries.
My FOAF file is available in RDF, the W3C standard for generic data interchange, as card.rdf, and also on Notation3 at card.n3. You can use programs like the tabulator or Foafnaut for reading FOAF files, and various sites index then in various ways.
You will notice that my FOAF page has links to information about my organization, whose URI is http://www.w3.org/data#W3C, and the page http://www.w3.org/data has links to the W3C publications and organizational structure and so on.
If you are updating your address book, please take the time to publish a FOAF page. Foaf-a-matic is one tool. (PS: Plaxo says it supports FOAf but I don't know how well. If you join the Opera community, you get a FOAF page automatically)
