PUBLIC MARKS with tags rss & microformats

Microformats enable you to enrich your web pages (HTML, XHTML, RSS, Atom, Blog, XML). They don't affect how your web pages are rendered by a browser. But they have a huge (positive) impact on the ability of web tools to collect, understand, and process the information in your web pages. Microformats are tiny bits of information injected into web pages. When you add together the tiny bits of information over thousands or millions of web pages, you have a mountain of valuable information that can help with searching, understanding, and processing the web. There is a growing collection of microformats. I have created tutorials on the core microformats (as of early 2007).

"It does us no good to have overly technical specifications that only hardcore developers can use, in the same way that it does us no good to have simplistic solutions written for non-techies that don't help us do things more efficiently".

"ReBlg.com would enable end-users to register their favorite tool of choice so that wherever they traveled on the web, by simply clicking on the the 'ReBlg' button - they could easily send that post to their favorite tool". Mouais ?:)

Est-ce que les microformats savent faire le café ? Je ne suis quand même pas sûr que foaf, rss ou vcard soient les meilleurs exemples de ce que peut-être un microformat.
