Thus, I can use the same <a href="http://dbpedia.org/resource/Uniform_Resource_Locator" id="link-id10ebc630">URL</a> linking mechanism to reference a broader range of &quot;Things&quot; i.e., documents, things that documents are about, or things loosely associated with documents.</p>\n\n<p>The <a href="http://virtuoso.openlinksw.com" id="link-id144304a8">Virtuoso</a> <a href="http://virtuoso.openlinksw.com/Whitepapers/html/VirtSpongerWhitePaper.html" id="link-id14a96400">Sponger</a> is an example of an <a href="http://www.openlinksw.com/weblog/public/search.vspx?blogid=127&amp;q=rdf%20middleware&amp;type=text&amp;output=html" id="link-id14d36938">RDF Middleware</a> solution from <a href="http://www.openlinksw.com/dataspace/organization/openlink#this" id="link-id117e5c50">OpenLink Software</a>.
