Hi, I thought about something like that:

<div class="blogformat">
  <img class="logo" src="images/hblog.gif" alt="" /><!--optional-->
  <a class="url" href="URL" title="Zum Weblog">Blogname</a>
  <span class="language"><em> / DE: </em></span>
  <ul class="cat"><!--major categories-->
    <li>Webstandards</li>
    <li>CSS</li>
    <li>XHTML</li>
 </ul>
 <ul class="feeds"><!--one or more-->
   <li><a href="URL">RSS</a></li>
   <li><a href="URL">Atom</a></li>
 </ul>
 <span class="description">
 Artikel und Experimente zu Webstandards, CSS, XHTML und Themen der
 Internettechniken
 </span>
</div>
