<h1> Suggested Reading </h1><br />
<br />
The following resources provide a lot of background on the Web, web design, semantic markup (as described in the [[introduction]]) which provided much of the bases for [[microformats]].<br />

==REST==<br />
One parallel that can be drawn is between microformats and REST in the web services world, i.e. see this [http://www.windley.com/archives/2005/07/microformats.shtml comparison of microformats and REST]. See the [http://rest.blueoxen.net REST wiki] for more about REST. Related [http://patricklogan.blogspot.com/2006/01/microformat-microprotocol.html microformats and microprotocols].<br />
