cool, right? well not exactly, it uses shortlived-by-design URIs:

Well, we can't have it both ways.
Either we want everything of interest to have HTTP URIs.
Or we want all HTTP URIs to de-reference usefully forever.
But we won't easily get eternally-useful http URIs for everything useful
that has ever been plugged into the 'net.
Anyone building systems that assume otherwise is building something
rather fragile. There are a *lot* of data objects in secondlife...
