| Abstract: |
This tutorial explains and describes the use of several microformats, which make information marked up in HTML available for use in applications outside traditional web browsers. Because microformats consist of minor additions to the HTML backbone of common webpages, they represent a simple but significant move toward what Tim Berners-Lee has called the "Semantic Web"--but without requiring the technical and practical shifts and time demands of a complete XML-based semantic-web-development approach. Microformats also provide technical communicators with literacies and a conceptual foundation to approach more advanced Semantic Web technologies and suggest ways to refine current web design practice.
