Re: HTML Metadata and Decentralized Identifiers

Manu,

As interesting, we can look at the source code of news articles to see how various journalism organizations and citizen journalists are making use of HTML metadata, OpenGraph, schema.org, RDFa and embedded JSON-LD. In addition to social media optimization topics there is news search engine optimization.


Best regards,
Adam

Before this conversation goes too far down this road, Adam, are you
aware of schema.org, RDFa, and embedded JSON-LD? If not, you will want
to look into it as folks have already been working on this problem for
10+ years and have stuff deployed that the search engines are indexing
today (see the examples):

The only thing that's missing is a DID and a digital signature on the
content, which we'll be able to provide in a compatible way via the
Verifiable Claims work.
