"(...) tagging system is not "controlled" in this sense (...), but I'm wondering whether its web-scale nature can provide some benefit that one would not expect."
"Xerox has a tool that helps automate the categorization process, but allows the engineer - the subject matter expert - to create his own categories dynamically in a way a machine-learning system could not."
"TagOntology is about identifying and formalizing a conceptualization of the activity of tagging, and building technology that commits to the ontology at the semantic level."
"They are built to be human-usable (...) are targeted primarily for storage/retrieval of personal information and serendipitous discovery of group information . (...) The development communities for each are abuzz with ideas for exploiting the structure"
"Of particular interest are its application to categorizing content in developing fields, and allowing the navigation of content sets by browsing. (...) social aspects and implications of these community-created systems are also of great significance"
"we discovered regularities in user activity, tag frequencies, kinds of tags used, bursts of popularity in bookmarking and a remarkable stability in the relative proportions of tags within a given url. We also present a dynamical model of collaborative ta
"Despite its intrinsic anarchist nature, the dynamics of this terminology system spontaneously leads to patterns of terminology common to the whole community or to subgroups of it."
"by letting users tag (...), we're (building) systems that, like the Web itself, do a better job of letting individuals create value for one another, often without realizing it."
"a short introduction to what distributed classification systems allow you to do with tags, and how to generate tags to maximize the social value of these systems."
Folksonomies könnten ähnlich wie natürliche Sprachen wachsen, sich verändern und sich verbreiten. Die Tagger sollten sich höchtens locker an einigen wenigen, einfachen Konventionen orientieren.
Eingehender Vergleich der BM-Tools, Fokus auf akademsichen Nutzern. "In many ways these new tools resemble blogs stripped down to the bare essentials. Here the essential unit of information is a link, not a story"
