Since this post was meant to be read by humans, it seemed safe to use a short hand. An actual RDF document would look more like <a href="/e694edc9-da25-102b-9a03-2db401e887ec?encoding=xml" rel="nofollow">this</a>. I actually kind of like the result. I am looking for ways to embed references to Open GUIDs in content in a manner that is usable and resolvable. Using an href seems like a good start...though a float over div with the keywords and description would be better. Hopefully tools will get to the point that we have the best of both worlds.

Why do you write oguid:OrganicFood instead of the actual URI oguid:ea434692-e2c7-102b-9532-00301b462e0a? This does not seem consistent about what you write everywhere else about the necessary "opacity" and "ugliness" of oguid URIs. Using so-called "multilingual" URIs such as "bar:LabelAB" or "foo:AlimentosOrganicos" would help to make the point. Bernard Two remarks on this example.
