//Microsummaries are regularly-updated short summaries of web pages. They are compact enough to fit in the space available to a bookmark label, they provide more useful information about pages than static page titles, and they get regularly updated as new information becomes available.// (quote from the [[http://wiki.mozilla.org/Microsummaries | MozillaWiki]])
Firefox 2.0, beeing released at the end of october, will support them, RC2 of it already does. [[http://people.mozilla.com/~myk/microsummaries/sites/ | Examples]] show that people use it mostly for displayin the last article/ blogpost/comment on a homepage or the number of comments on a story.
Unfortunately, there is no indication what type of file Firefox seems to expect at the link. If it is [[http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Creating_a_Microsummary | a Microsummary generator using another site]] it has to be XML. But [[http://www.xs4all.nl/~jlpoutre/BoT/WP/microsummary/ | plain text]] seems to be the better option for Wikka.

Additions:
Microsummaries might be used for news items. E.g. assume there'd be an action ""{{newsitem}}"" which would output a header linking to the news item, followed by a short summary and the obligate "(read more)" linking to the news item, too. In Wiki syntax, the output of
{{newsitem news="NewsItemActionInfo"}}
might look like this:
--MasinAlDujaili, 2006-10-09, 13:36 CEST (only news item stuff)
{{newsitem news="NewsItemActionInfo"}}
might look like this:
