The concept of a semantic web, or at least of a semantically structured web of knowledge, has been around since the late 60s. It was brought to the forefront of the layman’s consciousness by Tim Berners Lee, inventor of the world wide web, speech at TED 2009 in which he got the audience to chant the rallying cry of the Linked Data evangelist “Raw Data Now”.

JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linking Data) is a lightweight Linked Data format that gives your data context. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on the already successful JSON format and provides a way to help JSON data interoperate at Web-scale. If you are already familiar with JSON, writing JSON-LD is very easy. These properties make JSON-LD an ideal Linked Data interchange language for JavaScript environments, Web service, and unstructured databases such as CouchDB and MongoDB. Delete the scoop?
