David Riecks at Controlled Vocabulary successfully busted a dozen myths about photo metadata. From the false notion that metadata is hard to read or takes up too much space, to more complex matters like social media and search, this post covers all bases.
I particularly appreciate links to valuable tools such as METAmachine, a metadata browser which streamlines the process of adding or editing captions, keywords and other essential metadata in images or the useful META Tutorials on the PhotoMetadata site.
If nothing else, this post and all the content on this blog busts the myth that metadata is somehow beyond the grasp of the everyday user.
