Machine Data also like service discovery links, alternate formats such

and keywords, how many websites in the web2.0 world have you seen
using external Javascript? this has to be loaded into the browser too,
so where performance is concerned pushing a few extra bits of data up
into the head is really a non-issue to most. Pushing data up into the
head (for machines) would seem like the right place to put ISO
durations and timestamps to separate content from data.
A side note to this People also publish ISO date-times in the HEAD of
their documents a little more than you may at first think, how many
times has anyone seen markup like this:
<meta name="date" content="2008-09-25T10:40:37+01:00"/>
see also for an examples:
