hCard Examples in the wild, pending review

This page is an informative section of the hCard specification.

The following sites have published hCards, but those hCards have not yet been reviewed. Once checked, they may be moved to hcard-examples-in-wild-reviewed; a great place to start for anyone looking for examples "in the wild" to try parsing, indexing, organizing etc.

If people or organizations on your site are marked up with hCard (even just your own contact information), feel free to add it to the top of this list. Please be sure to include at least one URL to a page on your site that includes actual hCard mark-up. Examples added without a URL to a page with hCard mark-up may be removed.

Want to get started with writing an hCard? Use the hCard creator to write up some contact information and publish it, or follow the hCard authoring tips to add hCard mark-up to your current contact page.
