I'm trying to work out if Piggy Bank allows me to add metadata to a website (or at least to the Piggy Bank data that is saved for a website).
I really like metadata, but sometimes I know more about a website than is published in its own metadata, either because the author simply didn't put it in, or because it's information that only I know, or it's information that only I care about. For example, let's say that I know two websites are related, but neither of them have any RDF data that indicates as much. Could I add the data to Piggy Bank's repository on my system? I realise there are possibly two steps involved: the creation of the metadata (which I expect may be outside of the scope of what Piggy Bank does), and the storage of the metadata. Perhaps a screen scraper could ask the user for metadata directly, rather than scraping it from the page? Can Piggy Bank also look up metadata in a third-party repository? Metadata doesn't have to actually be embedded into the page itself, but could theoretically be sprawled out across the web, right?
