TimBL's Linked Data meme isn't about "sharing," solely. What about "whole data representation" and the URI de-reference requirements?
Ditto unambiguous URI based naming etc..I guess the problem is that "Linked Data" is quite generic when taken literally and like wise in the broader computer science realm discourse. Thus, we have to deal with the question of what moniker best applies to the title of TimBL's Linked Data meme [1] and the best practices that it espouses. Maybe we'll end up referring to fine-grained structured data that adheres to said meme as *Hyperdata*. At the end of the day, that's a cleaner moniker anyway :-)
