Users on the New Blogger may be pleased to discover there is a nice third-party tool for generating a profile section that is hCard-compatible!

Roger Costello has created a nice introductory S5 presentation (more on S5) for hCards.

hCards, among other things, are a building block of hAtom.

What is the point of getting that profile section in your sidebar marked up as an hCard? There are a number of reasons. Your blog will be compatible with the features of the new Operator Firefox Extension. If you ping Pingerati (or you’re indexed by Technorati), people will be able to find you on the hCard Search Engine. There are, obviously, other reasons as well.

What’s that? Blogger doesn’t output this markup by default, and you don’t want to learn the codes? No problem! Use my new hCard Profile Wizard and follow the easy two-step process to include an hCard-compatible profile in your blog!
