Adding (verifying) your Drupal site to Google's Webmaster Tools

I don't see an API for your entire Google account coming soon, or Google should already be able to skip the verification step for sites using Google analytics.

Works best with well-written long-form prose (not well for tweets).

semantic web compliant format: RDF

Then goes a step farther. For a subset, takes you into the linked data world. Another emerging standard, a Tim Berners-Lee initiative

for instance dbpedia
CIA World Factbook
now OpenCalais
