I think what a lot of the audience took away though was "RDF can do what microformats does". I think what maybe wasn't so clear was what RDF is good for that microformats ISN'T providing (and never will). @Mark & Leeky: Was great to meet you guys! @Jim: Thanks, I really enjoyed yours as well -- have duly linked the original post with your blog post. @Tom: No, I understand that.

I'm glad you enjoyed my talk. I wasn't trying to convince anyone to jettison microformats - I'm suggesting that there are numerous instances of things which can't be microformatted easily, and there RDF is as workable as microformats. And there are certain neat tools that make RDF a worthwhile enterprise and not something to be sniffed at. Thanks for the link, Meri. I’m glad you enjoyed my talk.
