Semantically Rich Markup Tantek's blog is a welcome addition to my awareness. The call for Semantically Rich Markup is a welcome one. I'm not hurrying to css, but am rather fascinated with the concept if not the buzz?
Are there any tools for semantically rich markup? The whole web would be an outliner if the heading tags (h1, h2, etc) were containers. There not, so web text isn't a hierarchy -- but conversations on the web often are. Some Arm chair cognitive psychology recently suggested that minds are hierarchic, but the buzz on that is more interesting than the supposition.
If I enrich my blog with semantic markup (like I do, in a kind of random fashion) what tools might understand it? Or at least make it viewable to browsers.
Tantek's call to "move west young men" is heard. Go west. The possibilites are endless.
The energy behind RDF/RSS/XFML is appreciated and useful, but there's still potential for basic HTML markup to be enriched. W3C DOM compliant browsers are fully capable of reading arbitrary attributes from markup. In many cases, XML is overkill.
