This workshop will cover just about everything to do with microformats. That's the beauty of such a simple technology: it only takes a single day to become an expert. This won’t be a passive presentation: you will learn not just the theory of microformats; you’ll also get down and dirty with some hands-on markup.

<ol>
<li>solve simple problems before complex problems - simple solutions will often act as building blocks for complex problems, and illuminate how to more easily solve them</li>
<li>solve the most common problems first. by developing ways of sharing the most commonly published/used information types first, more use cases, applications, scenarios will be enabled faster</li>
<li>if only one person seems interested in a problem, it's probably not yet worth the attention of the community</li>
</ol>
<li>Reusing vocabularies helps communication (Tantek)
<ol>
<li>reuse rather than reinvent (vocabulary reinvention is a common (e.g. XML) standards mistake = babel)</li>
