Microformats and Media... RFC if you like JS or CSS good to see "smart" drupal people working on stuff I am interested in...

In related news from WebOrganics by Martin McEvoy ...

hAudio 0.9 has reached a stately version 9.0 which I imagine will be the final proposal from the contributors of the hAudio Microformat.

PublicMarkup.org is starting to create legislation using open source methods...

We had a great meeting in Orlando about a dozen people showed up .... and we are going to meet on a monthly basis!!! Look for more news on the http://groups.drupal.org/florida site...

meeting notes

Mike Anello's post about the meeting

Went to BarCampOrlando

I am still thinking about how to use RDFa and microformats ... even while I am here in Orlando at BarCamp...

I see there are Structured Blogging plugins for Movable Type and WordPress that in Drupal terms are new content types that allow you to create things like contacts, events, reviews using Microformats including:

hCard
hCalendar
hReview
relLicense
relTag
XFN
XOXO

Good Idea make it easy for the end user to do this stuff ... please!

Google has so many things going on .... I am just getting around to playing with their Chart API -- it is pretty easy to create nice graphs (if you have the secret decoder ring)

There is of course a drupal chart module

In my blog posts will I add special semantic / RDFa / microformat tags? well maybe I will when I better understand it -- I do type my html "raw"... so whats a few more attributes.

Drupal folks take note .... there is a new WordPress Plugin that uses SPARQL and FOAF to retrive a persons profile from an external source!!

Jack Bauer hCard+RDFa Example -- not really from Jack but it's a good example...by Toby Inkster who seems pretty interesting.

weborganics has some good ideas forwarding the work of Mark Birbeck

I am trying to create some basic pages that have embedded RDFa that look good in webpages. It has been slow going since I don't have much time for this stuff ... and finding examples is tough.

While wasting time on twitter.com markbirbeck gave me some good links.
