I am interested to know too.
How could they possibly be uninterested in that since the logic for the Meta are for us to specify the title and keywords for the Search Engines.

I don't really use meta tags. My site is a blog and I don't really care about its ranking in Google. I used to put code to make search bots go away too. I use meta tags for putting author, webaddress, and other infomation though; just because Wordpress has it by default.

This tags can help you a bit....

Do Meta tags still work help getting your page ranked higher anymore? I know google has a different way of ranking pages and they don't really use meta tags to decide the rank.

thats right, google dont give much importance,but remember that google dispalys your title tags in their search results and still put some points to it..
MSN by the way put a great emphasis in your meta tags .. if you optimize well your meta tags you can ranked well in msn in just 2-3 weeks..
I know yahoo too gives importance to meta tags..
