XFN Relationships on Nayyeri.NET

Published on October 11, 2006

Phil Haack is one of those bloggers who gives tons of new ideas to others (Jayson and I are included). One of nice things I saw on his blog is XFN (XHTML Friends Network) relationships that he uses for his outgoing links.

Today I decided to implement it for my blog and applied his simple but great XFN Microformats package. So like the past, Rick helped me and set up a subdomain and I installed scripts and CSS styles.

It should be nice for visitors to see my relationships with others on web (although it will take a few years for me to meet most of people that I'll link to in my blog). I've updated some old posts and will update others in my free time.

What?! I don't even get an "acquaintance" xfn label? :( One thing I've thought about is really adding some of my own conventions to the XFN script, even if they aren't listed on the XFN site. For example, I haven't met a lot of "friends" I link to via XFN, so I might put "commented" to mean that I have at least commented on their blog once. ;) Or "skyped" to mean I haven't met someone physically, but we've skyped.

Phil,

:-D

You're now labeled with something more than that "EVEN" ;-) You would give some practices for some kids like me :-P

Yeah, that's a pretty good idea but it's worth to be done by XFN creators. Probably (surely) they use some graph theories (you know them better than me) to map relations to some graphic models so they won't be able to track new relationships if you don't force them to add new relations themselves.
