Needless to say, it was one of the most productive emails I’ve ever written since within about 8 minutes (give or take a night’s sleep), a MicroID extension was […]

This was news to me, as I couldn’t do that just a few days before… I have confirmed that user pages at del.icio.us are now publishing MicroIDs in their headers […]

The release description: This mod will display a MicroID ( http://microid.org ) on a user’s profile in the head tag.
