Add support for company specific features. Ex: menus & products

This project is a great step forward to get accurate information about a business out to sites that aggregate that type of information. In particular this is beneficial for restaurants which tend to have flash based websites and are not easy for search and aggregation engines to scrape.

It would be great to add a section to the file format for specifying menu items (or just products in general) and prices. That way sites like Yelp can present at least a snippet of what is available at a particular business.

Thanks Brian for the idea. What do you think of this:

Menu Item: $1.95, Caffe Late 
Menu Item: $11.95, The Salad & Soup Bar 
Menu Item: $6.95, Chicken wings Buffalo style (spicy) 8 wings 

It would be flexible to add as many items as you want, although it wouldn't be possible to separate in sections.

Looks good to me. I'm not sure that you need sections, then people might just go nuts cramming in tons of info.

Although, if you find that you need sections but still want readability, you may look toward something like the INI format: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ini_file

Hi! Great idea.

I like the current proposed syntax (non-INI style), as it is similar to robots.txt
