Week 14

Tagging and especially Delicious is very interesting. You could very easily spend a lot of time there. I ran out of time so didn't actually set up my own account yet. Do hope to in the future. The question of using tagging on the library catalog is complex. I think many people would love it. I would certainly find it interesting. It would be neat to see other people's comments about different items. I would like it that you have to go in differently to look at the tags. If you're not interested in them you wouldn't see them. I thought it looked like that on the Ann Arbor site. The complex issue would be in trusting people to use appropriate words. I'm afraid many of our "regulars" wouldn't follow along with that and then there would be the problem of policing it or enforcing the use of only appropriate words. I also went back and added tags to my earlier posts.
