+I want to do some things that I think are easiest accomplished
+by allowing me to add arbitrary HTML to be embedded on all pages
+in the site. Specifically, I want to add meta tags to the top of
+the page so that it renders pretty-like in things like Twitter,
+and I want to add Piwik tracking to the bottom of the page.
+
+So how do I do that?
+
+I could write a whole new template for the site, but I suspect
+that there's a more modular approach that is advised. And if you
+have ideas of totally different ways do do this, do tell.
+
+Thanks
