What social networking sites uses XFN to express relationships and makes the XFN data v

Hi Folks,

What social networking sites use XFN to express
relationship
information?  

In particular, I am seeking sites that let me see and scrape
the XFN
data.  That is, I want to be able to do View Page Source and
see the
rel="..." on the link.

Apparently WordPress uses XFN to express relationship
information, but
the XFN data is not visible.

Thanks!

/Roger

It's not a social networking focus, but metafilter.com uses
XFN how  
you're describing.  See, for example:

I'm not sure what this could mean. If you mean, by visible:

then WordPress does indeed make its XFN data visible. In
fact, there's
no other way to use XFN.

Have I misunderstood your question?

Sounds like the WordPress theme your blog is using doesn't
publish the
XFN data. I'd recommend filing a bug report with the theme
author.
