To add a bit of background, I needed an OpenGraph parser for a personal project so I broke it off into a separate service.

The API takes in a URL and returns any OpenGraph data found along with some inferred values based on the HTML content.

The main focus for the product was to get the commonly used OG fields so some of the more obscure fields are ignored.

That's nice, but those who are interested in OGP would also want Schema.org, so, to offer a commercially viable service, I think Schema.org is a must.

To tell you the truth I had never even thought about that but its a good idea. Thanks!
