    A bit of history on the early #WorldWideWeb ideas of:

    • #URL ( #UniformResourceLocation )

    • #URN ( #UniformResourceName )

    • #URC ( #UniformResourceCharacteristic )

    #WebFinger is, in a way, today's realization of the old URC (Uniform Resource Characteristic) idea.

    Early on with the #WorldWideWeb — there were:

    • #URL (Uniform Resource Location)

    • #URN (Uniform Resource Name)

    • #URC (Uniform Resource Characteristic)

    ...

    Today people tend to be very familiar with URLs (and URIs).

    A small percentage of -people are aware of URNs.

    And almost no one is familiar with URCs.
