“Your data’s worth way more to you than to anybody else. It’s just that the way the world works today doesn’t allow you to unlock that value,” says inrupt CEO @johnwbruce. #Solid changes that by putting your data back under your control. #SXSW2019

Yep! #Web is an abstraction atop the #Internet where a #hyperlink identifies a document location. #LinkedData abstracts further by using a hyperlink as an Entity Name (Noun). #SemanticWeb abstracts further by letting us create sentences using hyperlinks.

We've all experienced that age-old photo storage conundrum. With #Solid, you can easily store, link and share images with anyone you choose. It’s a more empowering alternative to today’s apps. nyti.ms/2QQMyRL @nytimes
