  if ($fingerpoint->webid)
  {
    my $sparql  = sprintf(
      "SELECT * WHERE {<%s> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/homepage> ?page.}",
      $fingerpoint->webid);
    my $query   = RDF::Query::Client->new($sparql);
    my $results = $query->execute($fingerpoint->endpoint);
         while (my $row = $results->next)
    {
      print "Found page: " . $row->{'page'}->uri . "\n";
    }
  }
```

## DESCRIPTION

As well as the standard WWW::Finger methods, WWW::Finger::Fingerpoint provides this additional method:

- "get($p1, $p2, ...)"

  `$p1`, `$p2` and are RDF predicate URIs. Returns a list of values which are non-bnode objects of triples where the predicate URI is one of the parameters and the  subject URI is the person/agent fingered.

  ```
    # Returns phone numbers...
    $finger->get('http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/phone',
                 'http://rdf.data-vocabulary.org/#tel');
  ```
