Microformateers

  1. @xpismh Yes! That enhanced result is Yahoo! Searchmonkey (http://bit.ly/gu6FA which caches microformats for search ^BW
  2. @Echo @stillist is right: Microformat `nickname` is only parsed as a descendent of `vcard`. µformat parsers are expected to be tolerant. ^BW
  3. @Echo class attribute belongs to HTML; CSS is just one use. HTML4 says: ‘identifying fields when extracting data’. http://is.gd/5iAdO ^BW
  4. @Echo µf examples use generic `span`/`div` as we didn't want to give a false impression that you must use a particular semantic element. ^BW
  5. @codinghorror If your address is unstructured, you can use the `label` property of `adr`. See http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2426.txt §3.2.2 ^BW
  6. @codinghorror Yes, that's valid. HTML4 spec documents that class is a space-separated list (class is a semantic HTML attribute, not CSS) ^BW
  7. @nimbupani Worth noting that the `pubdate` attribute of <time> is not part of microdata. It's an additional, raw HTML5 semantic. ^BW
  8. @otrops Web antipatterns are documented on µf.org <http://is.gd/5dtMg>, but the term is much older: http://is.gd/5dtKE ^BW
  9. @wreichard2 Not a microformat. Chitika is a text selection in JavaScript, a microformat is an HTML markup vocabulary. http://is.gd/5dtEA ^BW
  10. @GUESShimself iCal—thus hCal—has no nested events. You could markup multiple `vcalendar` in page, separately for sessions and agenda. ^BW
  11. @rvercesi Issues concerning microformats in HTML5 are being documented/tracked on the wiki here: http://microformats.org/wiki/html5 ^BW
  12. @get_dave The profile URI for µformats is optional. They are be parsed without it. Profile is an opt mapping to upper-case Semantic Web. ^BW
  13. @get_dave On wiki: http://is.gd/59by5 for implied org-name optimization. Implied place-name is part of brainstorming: http://is.gd/59bBP ^BW
  14. @get_dave Right. hCard object needs fn (abbr: "formatted-name"). Defaults to people. `fn org`=organization, `fn extended-address`=place. ^BW
  15. @zastef No guide for installing x2v yet (will be at: http://microformats.org/wiki/X2V). Hopefully source for h2vx on github soon. ^BW /cc @t
  16. @thbo Yes! Check out http://microformats.org/wiki/hResume. LinkedIn publishes it, and The Guardian's new job-site will work with it. ^BW
  17. @honzasladek XFN is pages, not sites. Each user and contacts page on Flickr includes XFN. It is limited to social connections, though. ^BW
  18. @mikelikesbikes Can you be more specific? I can help you with problems and note problems with the document for the next update. Thanks ^BW
  19. @Encosia Check out hCard microformat <http://tr.im/hcard>. Maybe try the class="fn extended-address" brainstorm <http://is.gd/4ZsOL> ^BW
  20. @gels Yes! hCard is getting big deployments all over. Yelp published thousands recently as part of their hProduct launch with Google. ^BW
