I've tried and failed miserably (so far) to use the tags also. It seems they are optimized for a single use-case: single, magazine-style, pages or blog posts. Anything other than this and it starts to fall apart pretty rapidly.

The alternative would appear to be micro (macro) formats which would offer more flexibility but obviously the chances of standardization on a widespread basis would appear to be remote.

Given the diversity of web-page content perhaps the goal of a semantic web is simply unattainable - at least in the short-term.
