Very Cool and Clever (as long as the games don't turn into Raves with
swirling streaks of light!)
 I see how it could be useful in the dating arena as well (using attributes
common on social networking sites).  Even better would be conditional
metadata where the values could change depending on the viewer.

Nature puts metadata on plants and animals, for example, to warn away would
be predators with aposematic coloration to signify poison/danger. (Maybe one

What about mapping dynamically generated, real-time metadata on physical
objects like, say, basketball players so that spectators can gain immediate
game status info:

Clever?
