Huh At some point I put meta

Huh. At some point, I put "<meta name="geo.*"" tags into the HTML on my blog.

That some point was apparently over 20 years ago.

Anyway, don't know if I should update it, or remove it.

I too have such metadata on my blog, but also Dublin Core, TGN, OGP, Twitter and some stuff I made up.

I don't think it gets much use, but hey, it's cheap enough to keep around.

p, img, br, hr, a, sub, sup, tt, i, b, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, cite, em, strong, code, samp, kbd, pre, blockquote, address, ol, dl, ul, dt, dd, li, dir, menu, table, tr, td, th
