What is metadata? Where can I find out more about it?
Thanks

If you embed metadata in each file you can have all the database-like
fields stored with the document. This eliminates database maintenance
and coordination issues entirely. I think this would be a significant
management advantage.
Then all you need is a document reader that can search and filter on
the metadata. There are bunches of free/inexpensive applications aimed
at photographers that do this. The OS X Finder is also steadily
getting better at accessing files based on metadata. I don't know how
far along M$ has come.
