Pocket Cheat Sheet Brainstorming

Author
Tantek

Extracted from Tantek's to-do list, the thinking, methodology, use cases, requirements, folding design, etc. that went into the pocket-cheat-sheet:

Help create a printable foldup cheatsheet of multiple microformats that:

  • prints onto both sides of a sheet of 8.5x11" paper (size chosen for US distribution, and because it folds nicely into 4ths sliced vertically, then 3rds sliced horizontally into a size approximating a business card, hoping to CC-by the whole thing so that others can do their own variants, perhaps for other paper sizes also)
  • accordion folds first into 1/4 size along 3 vertical creases, then 1/3 size along 2 horizontal creases
  • on each of the 8 vertical stripes (4 one side, 4 the other) of the sheet, info on each of the following microformats (it is assumed that hCard documentation will cover adr, and geo also).
  • each triple accordion fold section for a microformat should contain:
    • property summary with required/optional singular/plural sub-properties (similar to current cheat sheet) + illustrative code sample with common properties
    • list of properties, sub-properties with values and definitions of each
    • URLs to spec, examples, implementations for more info.

Update: I made a folding cheat sheet to similar specifications. Not sure if it's 100% correct, it needs to be looked at for needed revisions. Cheat sheet PDF. ErinCaton
