Also, (since i developed X2V i should warn folks about this) X2V fails
at actually extracting vCards from Flickr. Here is why... the HTML
pages are NOT well-formed (and not valid there are inline elements
wrapping block-level elements), so i have to first pass the HTML page
through TIDY which converts it to an XHTML page that is valid and
well-formed. The problem is that in doing so, the class="vcard" is
lost and X2V is no longer able to extract any data. So we also need to
get Flickr to build well-formed HTML!
It actually is working now (maybe it wasn't before) with our
deployment of X2V:

We're using a built-in version of tidy, rather than the w3c service.
Brian, perhaps we need to compare notes on how tidy's behaving here.
Either way, feel free to use our service for this. (and send me bug
reports :D)
