At #ldow2010 on Tuesday there was a presentation on "semantic" Twitter via TwitLogic: http://twitlogic.fortytwo.net/ You can download the full paper if you're really curious: http://events.linkeddata.org/ldow2010/papers/ldow2010_paper16.pdf Twitter Annotations system was mentioned at the end as a possible side option. There's bound to be a good bit of talk in the Linked Data community on strapping RDF/RDFa into Twitter Annotations, but I believe that's still beginning. Additionally (as someone outside of the library community proper), OpenURL's dependence on resolvers would be the largest concern. Anyone could build similar "real thing" URL's and use 303 See Other redirects to return one or more digital resources about that "real thing."
