Over on my personal blog I discussed Unobtrusive JavaScript, Microformats, and the Google AJAX Feed API.
The posting discusses an example that creates a Feed Billboard using the Google AJAX Feed API released the other day.
Here is the outcome:
The fun part was creating a microformat that would degrade nicely:
HTML:
-
-
<ul class="feedbillboard access:randomly">

When i click a link, the page content is loaded inside the feed’s iframe.
This isn’t a microformat.
Nick’s right. Microformats have been through the microformat process, the name isn’t trademarked or anything but still.
Maybe you could call it a tinyformat?
Microformats are the trend of the next web generation. I think that every one should have his own hcard and hcalendar. With Microsoft and Firefox 3 intent to implement microformats into their browser, it should surely make a revolution in the coming years.
So, everyone grab your hcard now, breofre it’s too late…
