Re: [uf-discuss] hCard vs. vcf
I think this is the best answer out there and the one with the greatest potential for forward-compatibility: === Once you have the page marked-up you can easily convert it to ANY format, not just vCards. You can also submit the page to sources like kicthen.technorati.com and aggregate the data. It can more-easily be mashed-up with other data. === Why put yourself into a set path if there's an equal path with greater flexibility and potential?

Re: [uf-discuss] hCard vs. vcf
Why did you end up not using standard address output? I think that's probably at the core of the issue. If you have a separate page with an hCard that's only used to convert to .vcf, the why not just use vcf is a valid question. :DG ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
[uf-discuss] hCard vs. vcf
I am looking for some ammunition on making the case for using hCard over a standard .vcf file exported from Outlook for a static contact listing that will likely not change anytime in the future. -- jeremy flint www.jeremyflint.com www.kineticcom.com ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss

I had moved it all to a seperate page and just passed that to technorati. Then got the why not just use this vcf file line. - jeremy On 8/30/06, Ryan King [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Aug 30, 2006, at 1:17 PM, Jeremy Flint wrote: I am looking for some ammunition on making the case for using hCard over a standard .vcf file exported from Outlook for a static contact listing that will likely not change anytime in the future. You're gonna do an HTML version of the information anyway, right? Do it with hCard, then say look we get vcard for free (http:// feeds.technorati.com/contacts/your url) -ryan ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
