XML and Metadata Developer Central
Resource Description Framework -- the Technology for Metadata
Metadata is a technology that enables developers to
describe content. Metadata addresses many of the
issues regarding managing,
finding, accessing, filtering, personalizing, and aggregating Web
content in a standard way. Developers can use metadata to build
site maps, content ratings, stream channel definitions, search engine
data collection (Web crawling), digital library collections, or
distributed authoring solutions.
Metadata viewers can be built in Java and Dynamic HTML and can
provide organic site maps with personalization and customization.
