This makes perfect sense to me as a college student because I bookmark and tag references for all my projects and I’d love to see similar collections from my professors and classmates. aseldow Sun, 16 Mar 2008 06:53:46 +0000 social tagging social bookmarking del.icio.us delicious tagging bookmarking http://www.43folders.com/2007/10/04/becoming-tagging-kungfu-master Whether you are tagging in a private, public, or collaborative system, consistency is the byword when tagging. Without a consistent pattern you won’t know what tags to assign items, what tags to search for to find items, or what items you’ll likely get while browsing your tags. The following three steps will help you create a consistent pattern to follow. Even if you’ve been tagging for a while, you may find these steps helpful to refine your knowledge of your own tagging habits and practices. (Please note, however, that these steps are focused on developing a personal tagging system; to optimize your tagging for collaborative use you would need to develop your system somewhat differently.) aseldow Mon, 08 Oct 2007 02:24:01 +0000 tagging social tagging tagging style guide to tagging folksonomy http://fullmeasure.co.uk/Coming_of_age_v1-2.pdf Coming of Age is a free booklet that describes the use of some of the newer emerging web technologies such as blogs, podcasts, wikis, RSS and social tagging in Education.

I think Peter is right, for the community at large, this does sound like too much work to do, sort of like a giant public key exchange, where the web of trust evaporates as the network grows. aseldow Tue, 24 Jul 2007 00:57:41 +0000 social bookmarking social tagging improvements http://www.rubyrailways.com/problems-of-social-bookmarking-today-part-one/ Can you imagine the on-line world without del.icio.us, reddit, digg, dzone and other Web2.0 social bookmarking sites? Sure, you can - they were not always around and nobody missed them before they appeared. However, since their debut, I guess no serious geek can exist without them anymore. The functionality and information richness these sites offer is unquestionable - however, there are more and more flaws and problems popping out as people learn to use, monetize, abuse, trick and tweak them. I would like to present my current compilation of woes and worries, sprinkled with a few suggestions on how to handle them. aseldow Tue, 24 Jul 2007 00:57:00 +0000 social bookmarking social tagging problems http://jolt.merlot.org/vol2no4/yew.pdf This research presents a case study on the use of Social Tagging in an undergraduate classroom at the University of Michigan during the Fall 2005 semester. Students were between 20 and 22 years of age. Students tagged their individual blog posts to contribute to themes and conversations in an online learning environment. Using content analysis of the blog posts and tags as well as semi-structured interviews, the study examines the role of online social tagging for tracking and aiding group knowledge formation. aseldow Tue, 24 Jul 2007 00:39:54 +0000 social tagging social bookmarking folksonomies recommendations tags tagging http://carmun.com/ This is a fancy-schmacy social bookmarking/bibliography site for academics.

This is in contrast to real-world settings, where the need for maintenance of domain specific ontologies emerges in the daily work of users. But in order to allow for participatory ontology engineering,we need to have a more realistic conceptual model of how ontologies develop in the real world. aseldow Thu, 19 Jul 2007 22:31:38 +0000 ontologies social bookmarking social tagging taxonomy http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1255198 Social bookmarking is an emerging type of a Web service that helps users share, classify, and discover interesting resources. In this paper, we explore the concept of an enhanced search, in which data from social bookmarking systems is exploited for enhancing search in the Web. We propose combining the widely used link-based ranking metric with the one derived using social bookmarking data. First, this increases the precision of a standard link-based search by incorporating popularity estimates from aggregated data of bookmarking users. Second, it provides an opportunity for extending the search capabilities of existing search engines. Individual contributions of bookmarking users as well as the general statistics of their activities are used here for a new kind of a complex search where contextual, temporal or sentiment-related information is used. We investigate the usefulness of social bookmarking systems for the purpose of enhancing Web search through a series of experiments done on datasets obtained from social bookmarking systems. Next, we show the prototype system that implements the proposed approach and we present some preliminary results. aseldow Wed, 18 Jul 2007 01:23:01 +0000 social bookmarking search web folksonomy social tagging http://csdl2.computer.org/comp/proceedings/hicss/2007/2755/00/27550085b.pdf Abstract—The ability to tag resources with uncontrolled metadata or “folksonomies” is often characterized as one of the central features of “Web 2.0” applications. Folksonomies are said to support emergent classification, where the semantic value of the tags and their relation to one another is worked out through a negotiated process of users applying their selected tags and seeing what others... aseldow Wed, 18 Jul 2007 01:19:12 +0000 del.icio.us folksonomies social tagging social bookmarking video http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/stumme/papers/2006/hotho2006bibsonomy.pdf Abstract. Social bookmark tools are rapidly emerging on the Web. In such systems users are setting up lightweight conceptual structures called folksonomies. The reason for their immediate success is the fact that no specific skills are needed for participating. In this paper we specify a formal model for folksonomies and briefly describe our own system BibSonomy, which allows for sharing... aseldow Wed, 18 Jul 2007 01:17:42 +0000 bibsonomy social bookmarking social tagging library biliography personal library
