Microdata Experiment

I read the new HTML5 microdata proposal tonight and thought I’d see what it would take to convert my existing homepage which is currently marked up using eRDF. The result is here and it was surprisingly painless to do the conversion. You can try it out using this demo service. The spec is still changing so I don’t know how long my experiment will remain valid (it changed from using property to itemprop attributes while I was converting my html!)

    Can you run a microdata extractor against your page, so we can see the generated RDF triples?

    Hi Shelley, I’ve now put the extracted triples on the page
