Feature request - Update meta tags/rich snippets

#1102

It appears that meta keywords are no longer used by search engines and Bing may possibly penalize your rankings if your keywords don't match your content.

Furthermore, there are some newer tags we don't support (yet) such as Authorship Markup we could easily implement as a user profile extension (Google+ account required) (rel-author, rel-me, & rel-publisher)

There is also an image meta tag using og:image which is primarily used when embedding links on Facebook, but appears to also be used by Google search hits. OR Rich Snippets https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/99170?hl=en&ref_to...
