--- someone else can confirm the details, but sites like technorati (and/or google/yahoo!) crawl the HTML pages and attempt to use heuristics to determine what the title, summary, publication date and other entry items could be. By adding the additional semantics of hAtom, you are making things explicit and then they can avoid guessing at what you mean, and understand what you intended. Applications like Flock or Reblog could build plugins, so when you right-click on the HTML page on the hAtom entry, the context menu could understand where the post starts and stops, and extract other metadata. This interaction takes place on the page were you are viewing the text, rather than in some secondary RSS reading tool. -brian -- brian suda http://suda.co.uk _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
