I was going to report the happy news that LinkedIn [1] is using hCards, as my little Greasemonkey script was showing an icon on the page. Alas, it's not to be -- here's what they're doing:

<p
 class="vcard"><a
 href="/addressBookExport?exportMemberVCard=&memberID=6172221"
 name="_exportVCard">Download vCard</a></p>

D'oh -- they're using "vcard" to mark that there's, umm, a vcard at the other end of the link. If anyone knows anyone at LinkedIn, you may want to give them a nudge.

And?

I guess it doesn't hurt to give them a nudge and let them know that the class they're using triggers the script in your browser making you think something is there that is not, but do microformats own the strings used in various classes and other attributes?

If was a web developer that new nothing of microformats something like the above would certainly make plenty of sense.

Sounds like just a typical gotcha when you're doing this kind of thing (writing MF consumers that is).
