I think the “metadata” really needs to be on the page for users to see, because otherwise there is a big opportunity for semantic spam, but I am not sure how feasible it is.

Amit is one of those rare leaders who has ability to paint a great vision as well as the technical chops and internal drive to make it real. I know he’ll do an amazing job at Dapper (he’s always had a startup attitude), and that team very is fortunate to have him.

But for the very reason that Amit always tackled problems that were far bigger than himself, he attracted an incredibly talented team to SearchMonkey that remains committed to the vast possibilities ahead. Arrington et al, we’ll give you the scoop soon enough.
