Exploring Metadata

I continue to trawl around finding resources about metadata - you can never have enough descriptions of descriptions about stuff, or data on data about data - can you?

Anyway, just a couple here:

A useful page of resources from the University of Virginia. Ignore everything if you like and head straight for Metadata Fun and play Guess-the-Google! Addictive, but also a useful lesson in the problems with descriptive metadata for images.

Conrad Taylor's thought-provoking article on Metadata's many meanings and uses attempts to unite understanding across communities.
