Bill Gates ♥s Microformats
Bill Gates surprised and delighted a lot of geeky web developer types at the Mix06 conference with his announcement that “We need microformats.” Tantek Çelik was there, and has the details.
I honestly wasn’t sure microformats would ever go anywhere, but with Microsoft throwing its weight behind them they’re bound to take off. The question now is what Microsoft’s going to do that will screw it all up. 
In related news, it looks like some cool microformat support is coming to Firefox 2.0.
