The enourmous advantage of RDF is that it ties in so nicely with Web
architecture by assuming a single namespace for identification. Topic
Maps (unfortunately) do not provide that feature.
Also, RDF does IMHO meet the 80/20 usability spot, Topic Maps don't
(at least not if you use semantics beyond their built in back-of-a-
book-index semantics).
Ah...and having implemented various TM processors I can assure you:
RDF has a much simpler structural model!
