Great post. The callback feature supported by yahoo pipes is really nice! Here is another article illustrating this concept with a real example that you can run and also download the code.

[...] Well, as I mentioned above, this claim engaged the audience quite a bit (a good thing!). Some of the panel responses claimed that the machine tags are, indeed, a success, or even an instance, of the semantic web. I mentioned Aaron Cope’s statement: “machine tags are not RDF but they can play RDF on TV”. I also mentioned Dan Catt’s quadruple-hop from machine tags through RDF to JSON using Triplr and Pipes (partially in support of the connection between machine tags and the semantic web). So, it doesn’t matter whether RDF is used or not (Dave Beckett, friend of the program, and the editor of RDF as well as the man behind Triplr was in the crowd and participated in the discussion). Others pointed out that the semantic web is very successful and useful for some domains (I agree). [...]

Have you considered using SPARQL? There is a pretty good SPARQL-to-JSON converter, and you could quite easily put together a simple script on the server to query the RDF and emit simple XML or JSON. See sparql.org for a web service and links to the documentation. I’d craft something for you now, but it’s late…

This is where I remember I forgot to document that Triplr can wrap the JSON output
with a callback: http://triplr.org/json;pretty;callback=foo/http://sws.geonames.org/5352844/nearby.rdf

foo({
“triples” : [
