Very interesting idea. So interesting I did some looking as well... Here's
what I came up with:
Php function to grab the meta data:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exif-read-data.php
"EXIF.org is a site dedicated to EXIF and related resources. EXIF stands for
Exchangeable Image File Format, and is a standard for storing interchange
information in image files, especially those using JPEG compression."

Mmm.. I smell a few image management objects in the oven. Oh, and look.. A
beer!!
Good luck!
