"tagging eliminates the decision - (choosing the right category), and takes away the analysis-paralysis stage (...) it provides immediate self and social feedback (...) it taps into an existing cognitive process without adding add much cognitive cost"
Let's explore how the lower cognitive cost of tagging makes it popular...From my first encounter with tagging (on systems such as del.icio.us & flickr), I could feel how easy it was to tag. But it took me a while to understand the cognitive processes at w

"Tagging works because it strikes a balance between the individual and social. It serves the individual motive of remembering, and forms a ad-hoc social groups around it."
Online reference managers are extraordinary productivity tools, but it would be a mistake to take this as their primary interest for the academic community. As it is often the case for social software services, online reference managers are becoming power
"Could the order of tags be a general solution for hierarchical tagging? It would be similar to relations between words within sentences or to the order of folders in a directory and without enforcing a structure."
People have been trying to classify and organize information for thousands of years. There are many examples of cataloged items in ancient repositories, including items in the Library of Alexandria in Egypt. Taxonomy arose as an attempt to organize inform
"controlled vocabularies often miss out on input from content authors and become rigid (...); folksonomies will begin to break down for the reasons mentioned above. Treating them as major parts of a single metada ecology might expose a useful symbiosis"
"In folksonomies (...) we get to discover content based on who is tagging it. This is powerful because now we can judge content in terms of who (...), and not just how relevant it might be to some algorithm that doesn’t take into account who-knows-who."
"If I get my friends to use Flickr, it gets better for me and for them. (...) Latest things matter. There are lots of interesting slices that can be taken. Slice by user, time, tags, location, relationship to other tags, "interestingness"."
"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
"This study surveyed the folksonomy as a complex network. The result indicates that the network, which is composed of the tags from the folksonomy, displays both properties of small world and scale-free."
"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"
Stefanie Panke und Birgit Gaiser stellten die Ergebnisse ihrer Untersuchung «With my head up in the clouds – social tagging aus Nutzersicht» vor. Sie haben sowohl eine Literatursichtung als auch Experteninterviews gemacht.
