That's great.

Though there is no exising microformat for describing
products, you  
can still apply semantic markup to your site. When
discussing a  
microformat, your experience with marking those items up
will be very  
useful.

Hi Ryan


This is an example of a product page header that we'd add
the hproduct micro
formatting to. http://tech.yahoo.com/pr/canon-powershot-s80/1992668776
You'll see I've already marked up the product name. This
is being included
later in the page with product reviews, using the new link
based include
pattern.
