ReadWriteWebs's Co-Editor, Marshall Kirkpatrick, suggests
today that
Twitter intends to leave the annotation classification
system to be
determined by the market.

Although I appreciate that Twitter values keeping the
annotation
ecosystem open for innovation and adaptation, I hope the
conversation
on Linked Data metadata standards within Twitter
annotations is just
beginning.
It could be an historic lost opportunity if the hard
driving Twitter
team doesn�ft step back and consider soliciting the
counsel of the W3C,
Sir TB-L, Nigel Shadbolt and others in the Linked Data
community.
After all, Metaweb's Freebase team is just 3 blocks away.
Raffi,
Is is a Wiki or some other publicly accessible shared document
space where the What, Why, and How of Twitter's Structured
Annotations is being developed?
there will be soon! taylor and i will work on getting a page up.
