[uf-discuss] hAtom + Twitter/smithmag

[Chris Messina]

Hidey ho,

Tara was unfortunately sick this Thanksgiving, so I figeted a bit
(source here[1]) with my Twitter interpretation of the smithmag
contest (details here: http://twitter.com/smithmag):

http://factoryjoe.com/projects/sixwords/

using code first created by David Kadavy.

I added hAtom support to the page using the content from MagpieRSS and
added it to the examples page:

http://microformats.org/wiki/hatom-examples#Transformation_5

Perhaps what's interesting is that you could use this approach for
just about any RSS feed... in order to style it in a more attractive
way... while still maintaining essentially the original semantics.

Thoughts and code improvements welcome, as I'm not really a developer.
I only play one on TV.

Happy Turkey-killing day!

Chris
