Microdata is a proposed feature of HTML5 intended to provide a simple way to embed semantic markup into HTML documents.

Microdata can be viewed as an extension of the existing microformat idea which attempts to address the deficiencies of microformats without the complexity of systems such as RDFa.

Support

Google can use microdatas in its result pages.[1]
