Blogging Standards--Feedburner also gets mentioned here.
Though he never mentions micro-content, micro-
formats or structured blogging - Jason Kottke is
clearly doing all three now - officially over at
Kottke.org.
At first glance at his blog, you see seperate blog
posts that are lists of links, reviews, ratngs
lists, QotD (quotes of the day) or plain old
vanilla blog posts.
Jason has just added a drop-down to filter ONLY
one kind of stuff - at a time, while also
intermixing into this drop-down menu - a few hard
wired RSS feeds.
Why is this significant? Cause an A-List blogger
is showing how he can take all these different
kind of blog posts and categorize them and enable
blog vuewers to easily parse through specific
kinds of contet.
No mention of sharing his posts with others
(except through the time honored tradition of
search engine spidering) - but I bet that if we
HAD soem standardized schemas - Jason would
support them.

More from the same post
Once companies like Feedburner and Movable Type
bake RSS metadata extensions into their products
and services, and Aggregators like Bloglines and
MyYahoo support it, then we`ll begin to see a
wider range of microcontent blogging emerge. For
example movie ratings, home video feeds,
restaurant reviews, podcasting. Much more than
just plain old blogging
