Re: [uf-discuss] Re: Sanity check on hCard usage
OK, so this span class=fnChattingChuck/span would produce a blank N, but the implied nickname rule would kick in to produce nickname:ChattingChuck? If so, then the remaining question is: Is this useful enough to mark up as an hcard?

There's not much you can do with the nickname without more context except display it. When I get an email or IM from someone I've previously known only as nickname on some website, I generally create a new vcard for them so I'll know who they are the next time they contact me. If I already had a vcard with their nickname already in it, this would save me one step. I'd say hcards are useful for any person or organization someone might conceivably want to contact. Whether or not that usefulness is worth the trouble of marking it up as an hcard will depend on your context of course, but it's usually a quick task to add a few class names to a dynamic system. Peace, Scott yes, it very much depends on context.. but it also depends on the nickname actually being used. Could be useful... span class=fnChattingChuck/span span class=fnpnhChris/span span class=fnjpanzer/span Probably not useful... span class=fnChris/span span class=fnAdmin/span span class=fnAnonymous/span All of the above could be pulling form the same field (e.g. wordpress user or commenter nick) but they vary quite a bit in usefulness on extraction -- [ Chris Casciano ] [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] [ http://placenamehere.com ] ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
Re: [uf-discuss] Re: Sanity check on hCard usage
John, You can make it even more useful since *you* know that the nickname is an *AIM screen name*.
