| Did you know that the default template for the Movable Type weblog publishing software adds metadata in commented-out RDF/XML to permalink pages? (By "permalink pages," I mean the pages that store permanent versions of each weblog entry, as opposed to the versions on the main index page, which are only there for a few weeks.) For example, this weblog is one I picked at random after doing a Google search for "Movable Type"; doing a View Source on it will show the commented-out RDF. (For all I know, the weblog's author never heard of RDF.) Being commented out, this RDF is not particularly useful, but this default habit of Movable Type inspired me to try to get Movable Type to put RDFa versions of the same metadata into this weblog's permalink pages. It works, and you can now pull RDF/XML out of any permalink version of one of my weblog entries with a single URL, like this. It's much easier than trying to do something with commented-out RDF/XML. |
