+## Introduction
+
+The [RDF standard](http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-concepts/) defines a Graph data model for distributed information on the web. A RDF graph is a set of RDF triples, consistenting of a three nodes:
+
+1. a subject node with an IRI or a blank node,
+2. a predicate node with the IRI of a RDF property, 
+3. an object nodes with an IRI, a blank node or a RDF literal value.
+
+Let's start examining how the different types of nodes - the RDF standards also calls them RDF terms - are represented in Elixir.
+
+### Nodes
+
+#### Literals
+
+#### URIs
+
+Although the RDF standards speaks of IRIs, an internationalized generalization of URIs, RDF.ex currently supports only URIs. They are represented by Elixirs builtin [`URI`](http://elixir-lang.org/docs/stable/elixir/URI.html) struct.
+
+The `RDF` module defines a handy generator function `RDF.uri`
+
+```elixir
+RDF.uri("http://www.example.com/foo")
+```
+
+Besides being shorter than `URI.parse`, it will provide a gentlier migration, if we decide to switch to a dedicated, more optimized URI-representation for RDF.ex.
+
+#### Vocabularies
+
+But rather than having to pass a fully qualified URI string to `RDF.uri`, it allows for something similar to QNames of XML.
