Tagging and Keyword Classification from a computers point of view

by The System on June 27th, 2009

Here’s a very interesting old post that I want you to read about how Internet users decide to tag pages and the consequent new folksonomy or categorisation of computer data, that has grown up around it.

What it demonstrates from a marketing point of view, is that the most used search terms must equal the most tagged page with that term – folksonomy therefore depends upon the wisdom of the crowd! (which of course can be manipulated!)

Heres the post – Tagging and Naming as a new language
