[Clipart] metadata for cliparts

[chovynz]

Hi guys,

I'd like to understand more about metadata. Some of you guys have been
talking about it as if it's the holy grail.
For me, metadata is hidden information - I don't like hidden info. That's
about all I know. Never used it, never needed to - that I know of.

What is metadata? Why is it so important - especially to clipart? Got any
links or info I can read? Yes I know I can google/wiki, but that often
doesn't explain things, that a live human can.
