Aha, that's kinda my point. I question the usefulness of putting a
microformats logo on a page with 'hSomething' text next to it. What
does that mean to visitors? Admittedly not a lot less than putting
'XHTML' and 'CSS' in a pretty box, but for users, it surely makes
more sense to refer to _Contacts_ and _Events_ respectively, since
that is the data they're working with.
I mean that in a general way: Naturally from the point of view of
people involved in the microformats community looking to promote the
microformats themselves then certainly using the name and logo makes
sense but using the 'technical term' to indicate the presence of
microformat on a page to _end users _ seems like a bad idea.
Thanks for reply Ben,
So, this is not technical but "marketing" for end users. Also the
presence of a partilular icon (resident on Mf server). Can track how
many users adopt it, and in which page it uses it.
Simone
