dConstruct Microformats Workshop

One of several microformats events.


Summary

This workshop will cover just about everything to do with microformats. That’s the beauty of such a simple technology: it only takes a single day to become an expert. This won’t be a passive presentation: you will learn not just the theory of microformats; you’ll also get down and dirty with some hands-on markup.
