3rd party markup!

Doc wonders about getting a slider in Technorati. Well it would be useful if we could tag snarky stuff.

WE tag STUFF

3rd Party markup is what's missing here... WE can't tag anything... the author does, which means it's not going to be an accurate measurement of the nature of the content. Embedded tagging makes spamming easy, and hard to reverse.

We need 3rd party markup!
