[KevinMarks] well, it's nonsense, containing chunks of remembered text

# [jeremycherfas] Of course. But the syntax isn’t awful and bits of it ring true.

User_ [KevinMarks], Microformats are shorter and stronger. Amphtml is weak. The reason it exists is to import the legacy of HTML. It was a political compromise in the early 2000s between big tech and old media, so you get a legacy act that does things differently that you kind of stay with, made up largely of people who don't understand tech, but think they do. If you need that, fine -- but if you're starting from scratch today and want something more suitable
# User_ for the future we should have microformats which are simpler and easier to work with (in addition to being shorter).
# User_ I'm awake again.
# User_ Additionally Microformats allow companies to develop Business Models driven by self-service customer exploration, rather than "hands on" approaches. Instead of paying for services and resources in support of a specific business model, companies can derive EBITDA from an ongoing stream derived from keywords driving demand acquisition models; the result is EBITDA generation from organic search engine traffic and related links. This shift creates a more
# User_ sustainable competitive advantage by lessening the reliance on marketing and sales expense while increasing profits through asset efficiency.
# User_ On the other hand, amphtml requires significant overhead in the development of software that reads submission information from specific data format formats such as XML or EDI; this cost model is impersonal since it provides no meaningful market feedback on how well contact information was received by interested parties.
