GoodRelations is a standardized vocabulary for product, price, and company data that can (1) be embedded into existing static and dynamic Web pages and that (2) can be processed by other computers. This increases the visibility of your products and services in the latest generation of search engines, recommender systems, and other novel applications.

Dear all: I just found that parts of the meta-data from our examples at http://www.heppnetz.de/searchmonkey/product.html and http://www.heppnetz.de/searchmonkey/company.html are now actually displayed by Yahoo as enhanced search results. See attached screenshots. Yahoo is not yet using all the meta-data from the SearchMonkey index for the results, and there are also some minor issues in the crawling for the moment, but I think this step is good news for future commerce on the Web.
