The difference between the Web-based uses and this one is the focus on services. These services  are meant to be used from within software applications, and to return data in machine-readable formats. These formats are primarily RDF native formats like Turtle or N3 and RDF-enabled formats like RDF/XML or JSON-LD. RDF sets are not meant for human readability, but for machines. Typically, RDF data are either loaded into a triple store to be then reused or loaded into an RDF editor/viewer or parsed in an application, by developers who know how to handle RDF data.
