What are the powerful, semantic-like things?

  • User-driven linking
  • Robust, precise anchors
  • Media-rich bodies
  • Semantic tags
  • Machine-generated annotations
  • Support for a wide range of

document and media formats

  • Interoperable data format with

a set of quality open-source libs
