  122. # [17:13] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @cssquirrel Microdata works, now, in Google. Microformats don't so much. Microformats have never had a killer application.
  123. # [17:13] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/kevinmarks] @cssquirrel you're comparing a process to a syntax there. Microformats are defined by empiricism: http://t.co/zub30cd7 microdata as markup

  128. # [17:21] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox @cssquirrel Vast majority of Google Rich Snippets in results are from @microformats markup on pages: http://t.co/rxqGFdT3
  129. # [17:21] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] Microformats: nice idea with no decent parser or consumption application. Microdata: less open, but with Google doing things with the data.
  130. # [17:25] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats @cssquirrel - the future is microdata, the W3C standard: http://t.co/A0xgZBrL
  131. # [17:25] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox simple Google searches refute that. @microformats OSS parsers: http://t.co/8g2uTtjn and search consumers: http://t.co/s2nC8b6S
  132. # [17:27] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] Microformats are the HTML4 way of doing what is now native in HTML through the microdata property. http://t.co/86EjNmAx
  133. # [17:27] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats There are utilities, yes. But I have never seen a use for them personally. I don't want an app, I want services to use them.
  134. # [17:29] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox if you've never seen a use for them, you haven't been paying attention to Google Rich Snippets which launched with @microformats
  135. # [17:29] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] My beef with microformats was they promised a new semantic web. It never happened. You rel='friend' and no site or search service cared.
  136. # [17:29] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/PennyAuctionsx] CQout Unites with Microformats http://t.co/KhABTmMb #auctions #penny auctions
  137. # [17:29] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox @cssquirrel @microformats work now: published on billions of pages, supported by Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, etc. Future is open.
  138. # [17:31] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats I've certainly never seen Rich Snippets do much that's useful to me as a user.
  139. # [17:31] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox wrong on both. @microformats specifically did not promise "semantic web". And Google SG API uses rel=friend. Do some research.
  140. # [17:31] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats @cssquirrel Google themselves say they are to concentrate on microdata. The future is microdata. Made for purpose.
  141. # [17:33] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Point 2) http://t.co/A0xgZBrL Google's future is microdata focused.
  142. # [17:33] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox if you don't find Rich Snippets useful, you may want to recheck yourself re: hype what/why Google is supporting what, now/future
  143. # [17:33] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Did you read the link I sent on the Google blog explicitly saying they were concentrating on microdata? Read.
  144. # [17:35] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats I also think microformats were a great idea ahead of their time. But there's a property specifically for doing their job now.
  145. # [17:35] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats I'm not saying Rich Snippets won't evolve into something useful. I'm saying right now I don't find them useful.
  146. # [17:37] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @cssquirrel To the average web user, who exposes any mocrodata/microformat to them? Answer: Google, and that's about it. So if Google...
  147. # [17:39] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox article out of date. @ #Schemaorg workshop subsequently, Google announced they care not re syntax #microdata #microformats #rdfa
  148. # [17:39] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @cssquirrel @microformats Microdata is simply doing what microformats did, but with newer more semantically appropriate attributes.
  149. # [17:39] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @cssquirrel I don't see any service getting the average user seeing microformat/data effects other than Google any time soon.
  150. # [17:41] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Thanks for that update :) Care not now, or care not in future too? Again, I still think mF outdated, mD is a for-purpose attrb
  151. # [17:41] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] Neither microdata nor microformats are important in average user minds, despite many years of work. Because no service provides a killer use
  152. # [17:43] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/cssquirrel] @microformats, @mattwilcox Same question for microformats and microformats.org.
  153. # [17:43] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/cssquirrel] @microformats, @mattwilcox So the question: Is microdata open in theory or in practice? (How much say does public have on schema.org?)
  154. # [17:43] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] .@microformats Google's an example. I'm saying BOTH don't matter to 99% of end users at the moment as nothing meaningful done with that data
  155. # [17:43] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/cssquirrel] @microformats I completely agree there. @MattWilcox
  156. # [17:43] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox @cssquirrel saying only Google matters is as flawed as only IE matters or only Webkit matters. open web is bigger than any co.
  157. # [17:45] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/kevinmarks] @cssquirrel microdata is a syntax. http://t.co/K9aXzf9R is a cartel. http://t.co/JbRX3NtI is a wiki.
  158. # [17:45] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox now, since 2009 Google launched Rich Snippets with #microformats #microdata #rdfa support. #schemaorg workshop discussed future.
  159. # [17:45] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @cssquirrel @microformats I'm also using Google as the example as they have the biggest "normal user" reach, therefor potential to impact.
  160. # [17:47] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats So you're saying that in future Google may simply ignore mF as they have expressed a future focus on mD? Or future cont both?

  162. # [17:47] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/kevinmarks] @cssquirrel wiki, clearly. http://t.co/v28flGd7 has an edit button; http://t.co/K9aXzf9R doesn't even have an edit history.

  164. # [17:51] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/cssquirrel] Everyone please feel free to vote. Preference of use? Microformats using microformats syntax, or Microformats using microdata syntax?
  165. # [17:51] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox @cssquirrel we're collaborating on that ideal. microformats 2 defines syntax & vocabs usable with #microformats #microdata #rdfa
  166. # [17:52] * Joins: patcito (~123@190.42.16.88)
  167. # [17:53] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox #microformats #microdata #rdfa work today in Google, and expected to multiple syntaxes in future also. vocabs are in flux though
  168. # [17:53] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/cssquirrel] @microformats So you find mF using microdata syntax a good road forward? @MattWilcox
  169. # [17:55] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats That sounds pretty nice. Again though, the advantage of schema .org is surety of a very large consumer doing something with it
  170. # [17:55] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/kevinmarks] @benadida @cssquirrel the point of microformats is to agree vocabularies. Of course you can use any vocab you want, they're html classes...
  171. # [17:55] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @cssquirrel @MattWilcox microformats community vocabs are good path forward. #uf2 is even simpler syntax than #microformats #microdata #rdfa
  172. # [17:57] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats That sounds good. I like mF community and ideals. I just worry about how much impact they may have given schema .org
  173. # [17:57] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/kevinmarks] @benadida @cssquirrel the http://t.co/T8obHriv syntax is even more concise and simple. Microdata is very verbose.
  174. # [17:57] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats - but I'm not saying I like that Google's the controller of schema .org. Just that it's practical.
  175. # [17:59] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox single vendor (or oligopoly) controlled technologies are rarely (if ever?) longterm practical on the web. Open eventually wins.
  176. # [18:01] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Totally agree. But the tech needs a mechanism that uses it to succeed. Perfect tech that isn't exposed is pointless.
  177. # [18:01] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox good ideas can come from anywhere. plenty of #schemaorg brainstorms can be used to collaboratively improve open vocabularies.
  178. # [18:03] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Also agreed. But agian, <time> was on millions of WP sites. It's been dropped, "because no one parses it". It comes down...
  179. # [18:03] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Witness the XHTML or <time> and <data> debacle for how the open process can be equally short sighted and failure prone.
  180. # [18:03] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox @cssquirrel no guarantees on open web. services have incentive to parse what's published. publishers adopt simple/easy/open tech
  181. # [18:05] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats If I knew Google would always take mF I'd rather use mF (with mD attribute use) than schema .org because of democratic process
  182. # [18:05] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/cssquirrel] Here's my conclusion from my convo, folks: Microformats is the preferred vocabulary since it is open, and schema.org isn't.
  183. # [18:05] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats ...to implementation. Not of the mF/mD in this case, but of services that expose them. Those services choose which succeeds.
  184. # [18:07] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox <time> is too well adopted (Opera, @h2vx consume), millions of pages using it. It's likely <time> will be restored in #HTML5.
  185. # [18:07] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats You won't get me disagreeing on prefering Open, it's an ideology i love. But it's often a practical failure.
  186. # [18:07] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox open processes *do* produce plenty of failures yes, which hopefully we learn from and do better. but that which survives is open
  187. # [18:09] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox open is often a failure, practical or otherwise. yet closed is *always* a failure long term. that's the key: survivors are open.
  188. # [18:09] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats I believe so too. Said as much the other day. But that such a decision was made at all is itself an example of poor process.
  189. # [18:09] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox totally fair criticism heard loud and clear. @microformats is learning from #schemaorg, and hopefully we can share contributions
  190. # [18:11] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats I agree, but it doesn't follow that open as an incubator is better. Closed can become open later, and closed companies can...
  191. # [18:11] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/doriantaylor] @cssquirrel Microformats still need to be centrally managed so they don't collide, albeit not by a consortium of private interests.
  192. # [18:11] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/kevinmarks] @cssquirrel @benadida are you saying that any of them don't? microformats 2's typed classes makes intent clearer

  195. # [18:13] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats I disagree. Open democracies are ideologically preferable but often produce weak results. Witness Android vs iOS.
  196. # [18:13] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats See, this is one of the things I love about Open and the web community - feedback & learning. *high five*
  197. # [18:13] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox open processes are also often far from ideal. transparent, chaotic, and messy. yet with open iteration we get better results.
  198. # [18:13] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats ...develop and release open projects.
  199. # [18:15] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats ...that's quite abhorrent. iOS could never have been made by an Open process. And it is vastly superior to the competition.
  200. # [18:15] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats The fact is that the most effective way of doing anything is to have a benevolent dictator in charge. But, ideologically...

  203. # [18:19] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats iOS is software as much as hardware, and it's not open, and it's vastly superior as an experience.
  204. # [18:19] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats ...access requirements (IRC software & understanding, or email in case of W3C)? Lowest barrier to feedback is a forum.
  205. # [18:19] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats IRC. Man, that takes me back. How come you guys (and the W3C) use such antique communication mediums? That need special...
  206. # [18:19] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox with hardware that certainly seems to be true. Yet with web standards, open has won. Apple, Microsoft, Google contribute to W3C.

  209. # [18:21] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats e.g., Open Office is a poor experience. GIMP is poor experience. Etc. Open can't win niches.
  210. # [18:21] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Agree Open wins for generic tech. Companies all stand to benefit if it's as generic as the web. Other stuff... not often.

  212. # [18:23] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Again, mailing lists are archaic and a barrier to entry. Genuinly curious, why do you use these methods and not a forum?
  213. # [18:23] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/microformats] @MattWilcox there's the microformats-discuss mailing lists also: http://t.co/FRCjRyJA - standards tend to use IRC more e.g. #whatwg #schema
  214. # [18:25] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/MattWilcox] @microformats Forums anyone can browse, discussions are kept together and threaded clearly, they're searchable, require no user setup step.

  217. # [18:49] <Loqi> [http://twitter.com/joshcp] @cssquirrel @MattWilcox Great discussion on @microformats vs microdata. mF started a great thing, schema delivers a more robust vocab.
