    I know that you're a huge microformats fan Kevin, but among other things: 1) they're not remotely expressive enough for contemporary structured data requirements; 2) they're HTML-bound, meaning you can't provide data like this https://developers.google.com/actions/media/how-to/create-a-feed

    If all you care about is SEO then do whatever Google says to do this year and you're fine. Today that's JSON-LD, tomorrow it's ???? I need to update this chart for 2020 but as we see, history keeps repeating itself. https://aaronparecki.com/2016/12/17/8/owning-my-reviews#historical-recommendations

      When I think of "simple, reusable markup" it's JSON-LD, and not microformats, FWIW It's simple, highly reusable, and also unlike microformats, also scales, is highly readable, lacks the bidirectional fragility of microformats, and can easily be generated programmatically

      Frankly "linked data" is not a priority for me. There's plenty of useful structured data that is not LD, and tbh most developers who use JSON-LD don't even know about the LD part, they just copy the examples and wonder why they have "@context" everywhere

      I don't care about SEO, I care about simple, reusable markup with actual user needs and usecases. Hence h-feed and microformats, not custom cruft for each silo kevinmarks.com/partialsilos.h…

      JSON-LD is the way. 😀

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
