Parse URL parameters server side and produce a correct Title, OG MetaTags, Meta Description, & Twitter Metacard data.

Use case:

User shares llink, it gets parsed by FB and the title/OG tags are displayed there.
User bookmarks current view, title is displayed in bookmark

URL Example: http://letsgo.io?from=San+Francisco&q=New+York+City&wp=37.783333,-122.416667,43.066667,-89.4,40.67,-73.94&pids=8158094262,6920002684,2835649418,3920850843&dpid=3908821399

Where:

q: destination location name (picked up as the main search term)
from: source location name
wp: way points, including the starting and end points
pids: selected photos (currently unused) [optional]
dpid: current photo being displayed in the large viewer [optional]

If dpid is set, set the photo metadata to the photo pointed to by dpid.
