Denise Howell says,
Family tags: In a weird confluence of SoCal suburbia and meatspace
metadata, people are tagging their cars with stick figure facsimiles
of their family. What's next, the corporate version? (Stick figure

Update: Boing Boing reader Mario Lopez says:
These stickers started appearing in Mexican cities around 2001 and
spread like wildfire. Now they are everywhere and even political
candidates have resorted to this kind of advertising. They are sold
everywhere and are customizable with the name/nickname of your
children and pets and whatnot. It is all pretty abnormal and ugly. I
can only guess that this fad was brought to the US by chicanos
returning from these last holidays in their hometowns.
For once Mexico is not 10 years behind the US, now we are like 3 years
ahead in the bizarre family sticker business. When everyone started
using these things on their cars, authorities advised to the contrary,
they said it was an unnecesary risk to broadcast so much information
about your family (names, how many boys, girls, aproximate ages, etc)
to potential kidnappers. No one seemed to care.
I will look for some really odd ones on the street and send them if
they are really good.

Metadata Tuneup
Metadata Tuneup
05/28/2004 01:53 PMUpgrading to one of our version 2.0
licenses or selecting one for the first time? Consider providing
optional metadata about your work via the choose license
process.
Specifying a format will help people find your work via
format-specific searches (e.g., a picture of the
Eiffel Tower).
If your work is derived from another, you might provide a URL for
the source work. There aren't yet any tools to take advantage of this
metadata, though one can easily imagine using it to navigate a trail
of works that build upon each other.
In the future we'll probably add metadata support for location,
tipjar, and other work, creator, and copyright holder information.
Suggestions welcome on the cc-metada
ta mailing list.

PBCore Metadata
09/09/2004 05:25 AMPBCore - The Public Broadcasting Metadata
Dictionaryhttp://www.utah.edu/cpbmetadat
a/Intrinsic to digital technology is the ability for
each piece of content to carry with it some data describing that
content in a useful way. This descriptive data is called metadata. To
address the need to manage metadata within public broadcasting’s
diverse community, version 1.0 of PBCore (the Public Broadcasting
Metadata Dictionary) has been developed by a cross-organizational team
of public radio and television producers and managers, archivists and
information scientists. PBCore is designed to provide—for
television, radio and Web activities—a standard way of describing
and using this data, allowing content to be more easily retrieved and
shared among colleagues, software systems, institutions, community and
production partners, private citizens, and educators. It can also be
used as a guide for the onset of an archival or asset management
process at an individual station or institution. Such a standard is
pivotal to applying the real power of digital technology to meet the
mission of public broadcasting. This has been added to
Deep Web Research Subject

The Man who Invented Metadata
The Man who Invented Metadata
10/29/2003 12:12 AM I just gave a talk at the first Ascential user conference. I was
talking mainly about how metadata is rooted in human desire.
Afterwards, Bernard Plagman approached me and struck up a
conversation. He apparently is the person who coined the term
"metadata" in an article in 1971. Back when he wrote Data
Dictionary/Directory Systems (Wiley, 1974), it was necessary to argue
that metadata ought to be managed the same way data is. And now, a
short 30 years later, metadata is the new data....

Letters, Data and Metadata...
01/07/2004 04:45 PMConsidering how annoying I find The
Social Life of Information (again - more on that later), it's
surprising how often I feel that I should be posting some of the
nuggets contained within it for a larger audience. Anyway, there's a
really interesting quote in the book from Paul Duguid's trip report
from Portugal which I think is pertinent to my other post (A fragment of a world full of metadata)
on the vast amounts of metadata that the real world supplies us with
around the edges of the ostensible 'content'. But then again - as I
say - I find much of the book so aggravating that I'm not sure quoting
a chunk of it to support one of my positions is a particularly
inspired idea.
I was working in an archive of a 250-year-old business,
reading correspondence from about the time of the American Revolution.
Incoming letters were stored in wooden boxes about the size of a
standard Styrofoam picnic cooler, each containing a fair portion of
dust as old as the letters. As opening a letter triggered a brief
asthmatic attack, I wore a scarf tied over my nose and mouth. Despite
my bandit's attire, my nose ran, my eyes wept, and I coughed, wheezed
and snorted. I longed for a digital system that would hold the
information from the letters and leave paper and dust behind.
One afternoon, another historian came to work on a similar box. He
read barely a word. Instead, he picked out bundles of letters and, in
a move that sent my sinuses into shock, ran each letter beneath his
nose and took a deep breath, at times almost inhaling the letter
itself but always getting a good dose of dust. Sometimes, after a
particularly profound sniff, he would open the letter, glance at it
briefly, make a note and move on.
Choking behind my mask, I asked him what he was doing. He was, he told
me, a medical historian. (A profession to avoid if you have asthma.)
He was documenting outbreaks of cholera. When that disease occurred in
a town in the eighteenth century, all letters from that town were
disinfected with vinegar to prevent the disease from spreading. By
sniffing for the faint traces of vinegar that survived 250 years and
noting the date and source of the letters, he was able to chart the
progress of the cholera outbreaks.
His research threw new
light on the letters I was reading. Now cheery letters telling
customers that all was well, business thriving, and the future rosy
read a little differently if a whiff of vinegar came off the page.
Then the correspondent's cheeriness might be an act to prevent a
collapse of businss confidence - unaware that he or she would be
betrayed by a scent of vinagar. (Chapter 7 p.173)

A Repository of Metadata Crosswalks
A Repository of Metadata Crosswalks
01/04/2005 06:53 AMA Repository of Metadata Crosswalks by Carol Jean Godby,
Jeffrey A. Young, and Eric Childress
http://w
ww.dlib.org/dlib/december04/godby/12godby.html
Abstract:
This paper proposes a model for
metadata crosswalks that associates three pieces of information: the
crosswalk, the source metadata standard, and the target metadata
standard, each of which may have a machine-readable encoding and
human-readable description. The crosswalks are encoded as METS records
that are made available to a repository for processing by search
engines, OAI harvesters, and custom-designed Web services. The METS
object brings together all of the information required to access and
interpret crosswalks and represents a significant improvement over
previously available formats. But it raises questions about how best
to describe these complex objects and exposes gaps that must
eventually be filled in by the digital library community.
CC metadata in PDFs, images with XMP
CC metadata in PDFs, images with XMP
02/13/2004 06:42 PMYou can now add Creative Commons license metadata to PDFs and image
files, enabled by XMP (eXtensible
Metadata Platform). XMP is an open, RDF/XML-based format developed by
Adobe for managing metadata embedded in files.
Please see information about
Creative Commons metadata in XMP, instructions
for marking files with Creative Commons metadata for users of Adobe's
Creative Suite, and a "custom
panel" to enhance viewing of Creative Commons metadata within
Adobe apps.
We've also posted a related technology challenge: add XMP and Creative Commons
licensing support to open source apps, including Open Office.
