Thanks Kingsley. Getting there, I think/hope. So exactly what is the URI? I run something like select * where { ?s ?p "ZNF492" } and get back things like http://purl.org/commons/record/ncbi_gene/57615, but these are not URIs in the Amazon cloud, and so if that is where I was serving my Linked Data from, they are not right. Would it look something like http://ec2-67-202-37-125.compute-1.amazonaws.com/record/ncbi_gene/57615 or something else? Or is it just that neurocommons is not offering resolvable URIs on the EC2 (if I understand the term), but they could switch on something (in Virtuoso?) that would give me back resolvable URIs on Amazon?
And I am also now wondering who pays when I curl the Amazon URI? It can't be me, as I have no account. It isn't the person who put the data there, as you said it was being hosted for free. I assume that it means that it must be the EC2 owner, who is firing up the Virtuoso magic to deliver the RDF for the resolved URI?
