Part of the allure of classifying things by assigning tags to them is that the user can give free reign to sloppiness. There is no authority —human or computational— passing judgment on the appropriateness or validity of tags, because tags have to mak
Clarity regarding controlled vocabularies, taxonomies, thesauri, ontologies, and metamodels. With all the scuttlebut going around about folksonomies and tagging, these are important terms to understand. In the process of tagging, it's pretty noticeable
"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."

In this website you can find information about folksonomies, their strenghts and weaknesses, and Sem4Tags an approach to improve multilingual folksonomies using semantic web techniques. In addition, there is information about the developed demo software to associate tags with semantic entities.
