Microformats plugin for Maxthon!

There is a new plugin for Maxthon that can parse Microformats from sites. If you haven't heard of Microformats yet, you can read the article on the wikipedia. They basically allow software to extract data like events and contact info from websites, so you can export the data to other sites, or save them.

The "Microformats Button" plugin for Maxthon can extract events, contact details, geological locations, tags and addresses from sites that use Microformats.

Download this Microformats plugin

Maxthon Fans: Frederik Hermann from Jajah

    Today I met with Frederik Hermann, responsible for marketing at the cool VoiP company Jajah outside the University Cafe in Palo Alto. Frederik is originally from Germany and is a passionate Maxthon user. He contacted me via Linkedin after I had thrown out the question: What should be Maxthon's EU/US distribution strategy. It's always great to meet new Maxthon user's and hear why they started to use Maxthon and what they think we can improve. Jajah is going to develop a plugin for Maxthon so keep you eyes open. Check out Jajah out!
