[uf-discuss] Re: Wow -- Hicks takes on Microformats in Safari

[Chris Messina]

I'm not convinced that his implementation is correct for the long
term, but as an internet plug-in (mac only for now) it's good enough.

I mean think about: when every page on the web has a feed and
microformatted content, such buttons will be meaningless (which is why
I combined favoriting and subscribing in earlier versions of Flock --
since reverted).

But for now, it's still the exception and not the rule, so I like how
Hick's idea gets us closer to what begins to be possible with
microformats.
