Meaningfuel.org is a metadata dictionary that anyone can edit—sort of a Wikipedia for metadata. Its goal is to build a coherent evolving metadata dictionary for describing anything, by combining new and existing object metadata.

According to the organizers, “Our goal is to build a coherent evolving metadata dictionary for describing anything, by combining new and existing object metadata. Meaningfuel is not concerned with formats, only structures.”

While Meaningfuel.org may be a good idea, it is still in its formative stage. Many of the hyperlinks point to empty pages (no help files, no current events, even the “about” page is empty). So, it remains to be seen whether Meaningfuel will indeed prove meaningful.
