[uf-discuss] XFN is getting smoked by FOAF

A few days ago I was browsing through Twitter and at somebody's web
page I viewed the page source and found XFN being used.  Unfortunately,
I didn't bookmark that page.  Since then I have been unable to find any
pages on Twitter that contains XFN.  Can someone point me to a web page
on Twitter which contains XFN?

Hi Tom,

Thanks. I don't see Twitter friend information being publicly
available though; you need to be logged in, do you not? I was
compiling this table for my own benefit; once you get to logging it
gets worth taking about the API rather than microformats because you
don't have to worry about paging through results, such as here [1]

Regards, etc...
