XML and metadata

So, one thing I've always loved about slis is how everything is connected. During this semester I decided to take Digital Libraries along with Metadata which has created a technology rich environment for me to study. One of the things we focused on in Digital Libraries is utilizing XML to write metadata in code. Pictured below is my own assignment in xml coding. 

The fascinating thing about xml is, you define your tagging. It is what you say it is, and it runs as you tell it to run. I've found xml to be just as intuitive as html when it comes to coding (which is another type of coding I love) and found this to be a time to compare and contrast what I've learned in both classes.
