Hey folks, Yahoo has launched even more RDFa coolness: embed RDFa on your site to describe your flash games and videos, and they show up embedded in Yahoo search results *for everyone*, *by default*. http://ysearchblog.com/2009/03/12/embed-videos-games-and-docs-with-searchmonkey-2/ Yahoo provides detailed explanations of how to mark up your content with RDFa: http://developer.search.yahoo.com/help/objects/games http://developer.search.yahoo.com/help/objects/video Note in particular that, if you want your flash games featured directly on the Yahoo search results page, your one and only path is RDFa. (For videos and such, you can use microformats or the de-facto facebook connect microformat.) I *really* like how they're guiding folks to mark up RDFa. We should take this as an example for our FOAF, media, etc... RDFa guidelines. -Ben PS: the only thing that's a bit unfortunate is that they didn't reuse Digital Bazaar's media vocabulary. I hope we can find a way to create equivalences at some point... that's the goal of RDF, after all.
