[microformats-discuss] Microformats and the Semantic Web

[Danny Ayers]

P.S. Tantek earlier suggested a distinction between microformats and
the SW initiative which sounds reasonable to me:

DA:
> > These projects have at least one goal in
> > common: putting more useful data on the Web.

TC:
> Sort of.  There is actually a very key distinction here in the microformats
> approach that sets a different approach.
>
> Microformats are much more about:
>
>  Making the data that people *are already publishing* on the *web* more
> useful.
>
> Rather than:
>
>  Putting more useful data on the web.
>
> That's a fine distinction, but a very important one that focuses our
> efforts.
