[uf-discuss] Re: [Structuredblogging-discuss] microformat for books in a library catalog

[Phillip Pearson]

In related news, Daniel Chudnov (who wrote this:
http://curtis.med.yale.edu/dchud/resolvable/) got in touch to point
out COinS, which is a (fairly cryptic-looking) microformat that embeds
OpenURL information inside HTML:

	http://ocoins.info/

It seems to be in current use: http://ocoins.info/#id3205609424

I've added this to the book review template for the Structured
Blogging plugins, and put an example on cite-brainstorming#OpenURL in
the wiki.

Cheers,
Phil
