    You can edit "single.php" to look up the "meta" values you enter against a post but remember if you change theme you'll need to change the new files. The great thing about plugins is that the changes are independent of the theme you use.

    You know how when you edit a post you can add custom fields, well give them a consistent name and then you can just ask for the custom field by name and echo it out as meta tags.

    You may, however, be better avoiding the coding and going for a plugin: http://www.google.co.nz/search?q=wordpress+meta+tag+plugin
