Ontology of Folksonomy

by nhoizey & 6 others (via)
Ontologies are enabling technology for the Semantic Web. They are a means for people to state what they mean by formal terms used in data that they might generate or consume. Folksonomies are an emergent phenomenon of the social web. They are created as people associate terms with content that they generate or consume. Recently the two ideas have been put into opposition, as if they were right and left poles of a political spectrum. This piece is an attempt to shed some cool light on the subject, and to preview some new work that applies the two ideas together to enable an Internet ecology for folksonomies.

Ed Bilodeau et les "folksonomies"

by nath21 & 1 other
Plutôt que de démarrer avec un titre barbare, Ed a astucieusement choisit un titre révélateur pour la communauté des futurs bibliothécaires de son département : « Et si les lecteurs avaient le choix d'organiser le classement des livres. » Il s'agit tout à fait de cela et rien de plus. Et l'analogie est tellement puissante et intéressante, qu'elle va beaucoup plus loin qu'on ne le pense.

Folksonomies: Tidying up Tags?

by bcpbcp & 9 others (via)
1. Introduction A folksonomy is a type of distributed classification system. It is usually created by a group of individuals, typically the resource users. Users add tags to online items, such as images, videos, bookmarks and text. These tags are then shared and sometimes refined. A general review of social bookmarking tools, one popular use area of folksonomies, was given in the April edition of D-Lib [1]. In the article the authors elaborate on the approach taken by social classification systems and the motivators behind tagging. They write, "...tags are just one kind of metadata and are not a replacement for formal classification systems such as Dublin Core, MODS, etc.... Rather, they are a supplemental means to organise information and order search results."
