I don't get the criticism "each piece of information does not have a URI". Has TBL not seen http://graph.facebook.com http://graph.facebook.com ?

- scrrr 16y agoI can't view that link because I'm not logged in to Facebook.
- aristus 16y agoWell, sure. It's your private data so it's behind a login. You can get a free application key which you allow you to programmatically download your information, eg graph.facebook.com/me/events /photos, etc. Every bit of data has its own URL, contrary to TBL's claims in the article. Authentication and authorization are orthogonal to the URI scheme.
- pyre 16y agoIs Apache hurting the way because you can password-protect URIs? Is "403: Forbidden" the 'evil' part of the HTTP spec? I somehow don't think that, "this information requires a login," is the death of the web.
