"Web designers and authors are using semantic XHTML everyday without using microformats, and that's perfectly fine. They are not trying to create standards and interoperably/automatically exchange data with each other. They are simply expressing the semantics of their documents. Whereas microformats follow a specific process and are intended to provide a way for publishers worldwide to easily interoperably exchange simple bits of data."
