Be careful of the infobesity.
As in I see many microformats development on this list these days
without any questions being first
"What is the problem we are trying to solve for the user?"
I see a lot of
"Let's create this microformat to grab the data from the user."
or
"Let's recreate this format as a microformat."
If it has no direct benefits for the user, I do not see how it can be
useful.
For now, it is more useful for data mining marketing agencies, not
for users.
