Microformats, hAccessibility and Moving Forward聽~聽A Blog Not Limited
Discussion about the long-standing debate on hAccessibility between the microformats and accessibility communitites. Suggestions for moving past the debate to real solutions, such as the proposed value excerption pattern and use of "skip" links. Includes markup examples and testing results.
XML.com: Microformats in Context
There has been a lot of discussion in XML circles as to how far the extensibility revolution promised by XML can take (or has taken) us. Is XML really a tool for creating specialized languages so that information can be expressed in the most natural formats practical? Or is it just a way to reduce the burden on those who write code to consume web content (be strict in what you accept so that you can be liberal with your time spent fly-fishing). Are schema technologies a way to manage the flexibility that XML brings to the table, or just another weapon to put down users ("You don't validate. Go away")? Of course, the way I've posed these questions reveals my bias. I think that XML should be a tool for expressiveness and controlled diversity on the Web. I disagree strongly with the notion, recently expressed in a few quarters, that there are only a few viable XML formats, and that people should stop creating more. At the center of this controversy is the new Web 2.0 hotness: microformats. If you're not already familiar with this phenomenon, first read "What Are Microformats".

Designing around hAccessibility | For A Beautiful Web
At the moment I'm writing a script for a DVD tutorial on microformats that I will be recording for New Riders at the end of February. While designing some shiny new examples for the hCalendar event microformat, I've been revisiting the problems and discussions of accessibility that surround the date design pattern and thinking about possible design solutions.

How to include a thumbnail in the HTML of a page (Scripting News)
To support this format, include a <link> element like this:
<link rel="image_src" href="http://static.flickrfan.org/afp/thumbnails/2009/01/10/trwas2108818.jpg" type="image/jpeg" data-width="150" data-height="122" />
And some other metadata, as explained on the Digg site.
YQL now supports microformats! (Yahoo! Developer Network Blog)
Yahoo's RESTful query language can now parse microformats. This is excellent news ...although I'm personally finding it tough to wrap my head around the documentation. It's certainly trickier than hKit but then, it's almost certainly more powerful too.
DiSo Project
Social networks are becoming more open, more interconnected, and more distributed. Many of us in the web creation world are embracing and promoting web standards - both client-side and server-side. Microformats, standard APIs, and open-source software are key building blocks of these technologies. This model can be described as having three sides: Information, Identity, and Interaction.

Microformats and such [James Bennett]
![Microformats and such [James Bennett]](http://ma.gnolia.com/bookmarks/crotehibax/thumbnail)
James Bennett responds to the challenge of creating an accessible event Microformat by using the meta element to separate machine-readable from human-readable information. This avoids disadvantaging screen readers the way that existing event markup does. Simon Willison points out in the comments that using meta violates a tenet of Microformats forbidding "invisible data." I like Bennett's approach, and would like to see more user agents provide more ways of exposing metadata.
