 * Ed - @znmeb

how can hyperlinks build a crawlable graph of citations between blogs microformats research on online citation formats/style: common fields across various citation formats/styles Examples in the wild of blog posts with copy/paste citations:
 * MLA - Chicago Manual of Style "TCMOS"
 * 'cite' tag
 * 'cite' attribute on blockquote
 * http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard
 * http://microformats.org/wiki/hatom
 * http://microformats.org/wiki/citation-formats
 * date/time
 * author/publication
 * time/date
 * url

modeling after author-date Parenthetical referencing (AKA Harvard style) in-text citation:


 * (Smith 2008, p. 1) or (Smith 2008:1)

here is a proposed web style in-text citation:
 * (ttk.me 4JF1)

- uses:
 * ttk.me - personal short domain - acts as proxy for the author
 * 4JF - NewBase60 encoded permalink epoch days
 * 1 - and nth post for that day (1) rather than page number

all the way to: hypertext citation:

TITLE

Tantek's straw proposal for i18n friendly/ready web-citations: (with {optional} components) - including common 4 fields from APA/MLA/TCMOS citation style with modifications:
 * use ISO Date instead of US/European/English dates
 * use author FULL NAME, instead of messing with last name first (ambiguous internationally).

possibly add  tag:

possibly add author hCard:

possibly wrap the whole thing in a simple citation microformat: YYYY-MM-DD {HH:MM:SS} AUTHOR : TITLE should we include:
 * geo data? e.g. some tweets have geo markers
 * date captured/cited? stuff online changes (or disappears!)

how do we link to / cite a specific paragraph within a post?

subheads can at least have their own ids
