Interestingly enough, though, I had to use Facebook Connect on a
recent project, and in order to use it you have to use XHTML 1.0
Strict with Facebook's xmlns:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";> <html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml";>

Then, you use Facebook's AJAX bridge to replace their markup language
with data from Facebook.

It's not just a valid use of XHTML; it's actually a useful one, too.

But unless I'm doing something that justifies it, I stick to HTML 4.01.
