I tried out the Dreamweaver microformats extension. The first thing I tried to do in Dreamweaver was select some text and click the XFN button. I “encountered a problem” and the application was immediately shut down. No matter that I was trying to write one of these posts; luckily, I hadn’t written a whole sentance before trying out my new toolbar. I opened it and tried it two more times with the same results. Being an old-time Windows gal, I figured the solution (to everything Windows related) is to reboot. I did, and tried it again with the same result. I was totally disgusted at the whole episode, and now I try the hCard button. I was happy to receive a pop-up dialoge box to help me fill out the hCard. Seems the problem was only with the XFN feature. I didn’t proceed to publish the hCard though; I’m discovering it’s not always appropriate to use this. I was referring to Chris Pearson in my previous post, so I simply linked to his bio. I don’t see where an hCard would be beneficial at that point. The only thing I know about him is his website I stumbled upon.
