"keywords" is for keywords, and "description" is for a description of the site.

In other words:

<META name="description" content="a description of your page">
<META name="keywords" content="a, list, of, keywords">

Hi Dano,

You might be interested in having a read of this link. It's over 4 years old now but still relevant.
