Dear all:<br>
<br>
Great news: Google is now also considering RDFa data! While they are
currently supporting only a very limited set of vocabularies, this
opens up the chance for GoodRelations data to be honored by Google,
too!.<br>

<pre>Very nice. After Yahoo SearchMonkey has been around for a while, things are
now also moving at Google.
