Suppose I have an ordinary HTML web page. Embedded in the web page are
a number of geo microformats.  The web page has a link to, say, a
Javascript file.  When the web page is loaded in a browser, the
Javascript is automatically invoked and extracts all the geo
Microformats, mashes them with Google Earth, and then displays a Google
Earth map on the browser screen with dots at the locations where the
geo microformats indicated.

For a user who doesn't want a map display, he can receive the same web
page, but with a link to a CSS file, which displays the geo data in a
textual form.

Thus, the same data can be rendered in multiple different ways.

Has anyone done this kind of thing?  Care to share how you did it?

Brian Suda has done this here:
