[uf-discuss] LinkedIn and Microformats

Tue Jun 13 14:18:26 PDT 2006

I was going to report the happy news that LinkedIn [1] is using hCards, 
as my little Greasemonkey script was showing an icon on the page. Alas, 
it's not to be -- here's what they're doing:
<p
 class="vcard"><a
 href="/addressBookExport?exportMemberVCard=&memberID=6172221"
 name="_exportVCard">Download vCard</a></p>
D'oh -- they're using "vcard" to mark that there's, umm, a vcard at the 
other end of the link. If anyone knows anyone at LinkedIn, you may want 
to give them a nudge.
Regards, etc...
