LEAP: The Lightweight Employment Access Protocol

www.leaprss.org

"(LEAP) is an extension of RSS 2.0 that adds job meta-data to RSS to create a lightweight, bandwidth efficient and standards based method for bulk job syndication. This website is the home of the working draft of LEAP version 1.0."

...from the founders of workzoo.com

Not shopping-related per se, but an interesting development. First, everyone and their grandma is starting a vertical search engine. Now, everyone and their great-uncle is proposing some kind of microformat.

Will these microformats entice new entrants into vertical search?

Or will microformats only serve to strengthen the current players?
