I guess it's now a de facto standard; this is the format that tiddlywiki.com already uses. I haven't added tiddlywiki.com as a source because once we've got this up and running I think we should remove the community links from the main site (or have the main site take a summary of the links from links.tiddlywiki.com). A bookmarklet for adding links to ones bookmarking wiki would be handy.
