hAtom is a draftMicroformat for marking up(X)HTML, using classes andrel attributes, content onweb pages that contain blog entries or similar chronological content. These can then be parsed as feeds inAtom, a web syndication standard.
hAtom is available as version 0.1, released 28 February 2006, and is used widely throughout the Web.[1]
hAtom is also used as the basis for individually subscribable parts of web pages, calledWeb Slices, which are understood byInternet Explorer 8 and can be understood by Firefox, using third-party add-ons.[2]
The annotations indicated via the hAtom tags added to mark-up determine the portions of content obtained via the Web Slice filter.
