Tell me more about a URI: http://www.asemantics.com/; i.e. where can I find it (I2R), give me some metadata (I2C) or its official location (I2L).

Examples with URNs in the delegated mailbox format: urn:foaf:areggiori@webweaving.org, another one which is in the more anonymous sha1 format: urn:foaf:3b0c3795b1496c64d621e5c5094adc74528b7dcd and a non defined one to demonstrate the fallback: urn:foaf:Libby.Miller@bristol.ac.uk (bottom of that page).

A quick guide to setting up simple DDDS to return both resource (i.e. the web page or i2r) and the metadata about the resource (i.e. some RDF describing the web page at a given URL, or i2c) can be found here.
