Not me. It is. I just said we don't get it directly (because people are persuaded of LOD Principles), but indirectly (because people accept a poor imitation).
And people see the value, until we show them otherwise, not from a large linked graph, but from private graphs (like the laughably-named 'Open Graph').
(Just to be clear: there is a bit of devil's advocacy in my posts - you know me - I do believe that there is much that's positive with Google/Facebook/Twitter's pushing things forward)
