Microformats panel at SXSW Interactive 2006
One of several microformats events.
During the SXSWi 2006 conference, there will be a Microformats panel where microformats implementers will demonstrate and discuss microformats support in their tools and/or websites.
Presenters, please see To Do section.
Session Details
- What: Microformats: Evolving the Web
- Who (confirmed presenters): Tantek Çelik, Mark Norman Francis, Chris Messina, Jeremy Keith
- When: Monday, March 13th, 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

To Do
Please check the to do list to see if you can help out.
- ASAP: Anybody with who can help add hCalendar and hCard markup to the SXSW speakers and schedule/panels pages. Email the result to SXSW webmasters so they can update the pages. Host the marked up version on your own site in the meantime, and for redundancy's sake.
- Need hCalendar markup for the events and hCard markup wherever speakers are listed with details/info/photo (feel free to put you name next to one to claim it and start working on it).
- 2006 Interactive Panel Schedule
- SXSWi opening remarks
- SXSWi keynotes
- SXSWi trade show
- SXSWi web awards
- SXSWi evening events
- SXSWi media partners
- SXSWi day stage - no schedule yet, but expect to see the content there soon.
- (get list of schedule related pages and put URLs here, prioritize SXSW Interactive, but also include SXSW Film and Music URLs as well)
- Need hCards on (feel free to put you name next to one to claim it and start working on it)
- SXSWi press info
- SXSWi dewey award
- (get list of speakers/panelist/location/travel related pages and put URLs here)
- Need to send to SXSW folks so they can look at the diffs and update their pages
- (move URLs here when marked up with hCard and hCalendar, and append link to marked up version as well. feel free to review these, and add your name next to the one you've reviewed along with assessment, looks good or fails X2V etc. and any other notes re: gotchas/bugs etc.)

Microformats: Evolving The Web
Room 17AB
Monday, March 13th
11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Microformats are simple semantic XHTML extensions for expressing numerous common concepts (people, events, etc.) on today's Web. Panelists will demonstrate and discuss microformats support in their websites.

Demonstration and Discussion Tips
Note about the demonstrations. All demonstrations MUST:
- Use or produce content published in one or more microformats. I suppose that should be obvious. ;)
- Be completed in 5-10 minutes from start to finish, including setup time. We are working under strict time constraints, and thus I must cut-off demonstrations at the 10 minute mark so that we have time for the remaining demonstrations. If your demonstration stalls or appears to not work, we will move onto the next demo and if we have time, may come back, so be sure you have practiced your demo and are sure it will work (you can assume presence of a network, but being able to also run locally is a good thing). If you can keep your demo to 5 minutes and allow for a few minutes of quick audience Q&A that would be ideal.
- Demonstrate end user benefit. Showing the code that makes it behind the scenes and discussing the microformats used briefly is good, but strictly secondary to showing something working with actual microformat content.
Proposed Demonstrations
I have deliberately kept a few of the demonstration/discussion slots open for new/latecomers/implementers to be able to demonstrate their cool microformat implementations. If you have a useful and dazzling microformat implementation that you can successfully explain and demonstrate in 5-10 minutes please add your name, and brief explanation of what you plan to demonstrate, and we'll see if we can fit folks in. Some of the criteria to help decide will include:
- Does the demo run *today*? (2006-02-26)
- Does it demonstrate a microformat not currently being demonstrated by the other demos? E.g. one or more of:
Proposed demos:
- Name, Company, title/summary, URL to working demo/download
- ...
- ...
- ...
- ...
- ...

Earlier Description
Title: Microformats: Evolving the Web
Summary:
As the web design, development, IA, and blogging communities have adopted more and more valid semantic (X)HTML, two key realizations have emerged: there is a need to express common information building blocks on pages such as people, addresses, events, reviews etc., and (X)HTML lacks the built-in semantics to do so.
Microformats are a set of simple open data formats that provide an evolutionary approach to easily expressing such common building blocks on today's Web. In contrast to dedicated XML schemas, microformats for events or contact info are familar XHTML with semantic class names, making them trivial to embed in existing content, style with CSS, and interoperate with desktop applications.
