AJ Kohn’s New Rich Snippet Bookmarklet Makes Syntax Checking a Breeze

Category: Google Places (Maps & Local) – Mike Blumenthal – 4:59 pm

Having first struggled with rick snippet markup for reviews and having recently struggled with implementing rel=”author” markup on several sites I was pleased to see AJ Kohn’s new Rich Snippets Testing Tool Bookmarklet.

With the tool I was able to check several sites very quickly, find minor problems and get the rel=”author” tag working properly. It makes a somewhat confusing task go more quickly by tightly integrating any webpage with Google’s Rich Snippet tool. If you are working with any of the rich snippet formats this bookmarklet is a boon. Kudos to AJ.

Please consider leaving a comment as your input will help me (& everyone else) better understand and learn about local.
