I'm about to introduce global identifiers, so that I can make friends
and IM work on the hypergrid, and would like feedback on the best form
of these identifiers. Here are some options:
http://myworld.com:8002/7c4450fc-aeaf-468d-b238-d52955dc868b
myworld.com:8002/7c4450fc-aeaf-468d-b238-d52955dc868b
http://myworld.com:8002/user/7c4450fc-aeaf-468d-b238-d52955dc868b
[email protected]:8002
...
In this particular case (for friends and IM) we're dealing with user
accounts, but the issue is broader than that. Whatever form we choose
should be applicable to all sorts of resources.
My preference is to use a URI, according to the spec of URIs
(http://www.w3.org/Addressing/URL/uri-spec.html). The question is:
should we add additional specifications on these URIs? Like using the
path /user/ for user accounts, etc.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
