Blog Info Brainstorming
This page documents thoughts toward establishing a new microformat to use when discussing, linking to, referring to blogs beyond just linking to them using a person or organization's name.
Contributors
Simple Schema
From the blog-info-examples and the existing blog-info-formats, it seems clear that a simple schema must have:
- name of the blog
- link to the blog
- zero or more links to feeds for the blog
- type of that feed
- name of person associated with the blog (e.g. author / contributor)
Class Names
- root class name for an item - (hBlog? hInfo? hItem?).
- "fn" for name of blog
- simple href link to the blog
- "alternate"? typed href alternate links
- "author" for stating who is blogging that blog. hCard is quite useful / flexible.
XHTML Structure
Definition List
When used in conjunction with XOXO, this could be a very useful way of outputting lists of favorites.
<dl class="hblog">
<dt class="fn url"><a href="[link]">[Title]</a></dt>
<dd class="author">[author hCard]</dd>
<dd class="description">[Description]</dd>
<dd class="alternate url"><a href="[feedlink]" class="feed">[Title]</a></dd>
<dd class="alternate url"><a href="[homepagelink]" class="homepage">[Title]</a></dd>
<dd>Tags: <a href="[tagspace/tag]" rel="tag">[tag]</a>, <a href="[tagspace/tag]" rel="tag">[tag]</a></dd>
</dl>
