Dublin Core

The Dublin Core metadata initiative is positioned to be one of the components in the semantic web. An easy tool for creating DC metadata is DC Dot Simply enter the URL of the page you desire data for and DC Dot sends back the metadata. It can output in HTML, XHTML and RDF formats. It allows editing of the output. The metadata then can be loaded in a database or pasted in the HEAD section of your document. A nice tool. Very nice to see what DC metadata looks like and how it is formed.

I've added the ability to have the daily posting e-mailed to subscribers. The software is Bloglet; please let me know if there is any problem with this.
