Update on Carex species pages -
The  pages listed below now include metadata,  following Dublin Core - 
with a tweak or two. 

Time spent adding metadata to files - after template creation (2 hours),
opening files, updating files, saving/closing files,  uploading files to 
server,
amounted to ~ 6 minutes per species (avg.seven files).

http://utc.usu.edu/factsheets/CarexFSF/new/carex_communis_species.htm

Other new stuff added-

    * Scivee for video hosting, metadata added to video as a txt file. 
    * Vertical search engine for Carex, called specific search on the
      main species pages (at bottom of pages).
    * Synonymy through link to Tropicos
    * Both Google Map and Earth with GBIF
    * Tabbed navigation redone/easier

Thanks for all the attaboys, recommendations and critiques,
Tim
