Thing 13

I've used tagging in 2 forms so far. I've used del.ici.ous for probably 3 years now and love the access it gives me to my favorites. I can't say that I have utilized the work or tags of others and I have shared tags with friends who use the system. I have found the sharing part less useful as I am looking for art educational sites and that is rather limited.

Tagging on Facebook, well that is a more personal version. Family and friends are part of that community and the colleagues I teach with are not part of that community. Any tags here are of photos.

Thinking about tags and organization, after having made 3 websites from scratch one gets a sense of how to organize folders and information. I choose tags based on how the site or information might be used by me. As for student use, I think they would need a formula on how to name tags so they won't forget what they have done.
