A Simple Statement.


You can define a lot of context specific data added to a statement with URIs

Verbs What did they do?Extensions What other data is important to this activity?Results What was the outcome?Activities What did they interact with?

Statements are flexible. They can become complex.[and move a lot of data]

Yes, you too, can make a big mess.#TinCanAPI | TinCanAPI.com
