Default rel="friend colleague"

Has anyone seen this before? I got a link today that has a rel="friend colleague" in it.. so the link looks like...

<a href="http://xyz.com rel="friend colleague" target="_blank">

I am thinking this cant be good, but has anyone seen this? Any info on it?

Thanks...

Hi Chris,

Its a microformat:
rel-tag - Microformats

It should not cause anything negative.

Nothing negative.. But a total waste of time in my opinion..

Taking its advantage as a visible meta tag but actually youre going to hide your tags right in the url..making the tag text visible say "about dogs" but actually its not..when you click the link..this a certain in that rel tag..
