Microformats: page to phone in a minute

It doesn’t matter how much I try to explain the value of microformats, a good visual demonstration can show their benefits better than I ever could. Here’s a short video showing how the Operator extension can get information from a Google search to your mobile phone in less than a minute.

That makes a strong case for microformats. At least, I’m sold. Now how do we convince the other 99% of the world who have no idea what they are?
