About

The Open Graph protocol enables any web page to become a rich object in a social graph. For instance, this is used on Facebook to allow any web page to have the same functionality as any other object on Facebook.

OpenSearch is a specification that describes a website's search engine, enabling browsers, apps, and services to discover and integrate it.

It is implemented as a linked XML file and was originally developed by Amazon to make it easier for other applications to integrate their search services.
