Week 4 Tagging

This document discusses social bookmarking and tagging. It defines tags as user-generated labels applied to bookmarks, photos, and other resources to aid in retrieval. Tagging creates a "folksonomy" through a decentralized, social approach. The document provides examples of social bookmarking tools like Delicious and Flickr. It instructs the reader to search terms in these tools and a library catalog to compare results. The reader is also asked to create bookmarks in the 2Collab social bookmarking tool.
