Delicious or technorati et all are agents to help the end user find content - based on the *tags* the end user enters.. this journey from Intent to Content isnt achieved just by the search engine.. the user is creating the content, the end user ie. Who is going to teach gazillions of users - the nuances of : linguitics, noun/verb, commas, delimiters, - or _ .. etc etc.. especially when the blogging softwares make it so easy for the end user - to create multiple tags -- and not only that, store it for future use.. I am referring to the "manage tags link" --> unless the *problem* is captured at the source level itself - i dont see much improvement at all.. Can you imagine teaching the end users how to tag their photos - and posts - especially when there exist many a users - who write like : will u b home 2morrow? regards olga lednichenko you bring up very pertinent issues.. however, reading your article made me feel that you are mostly covering issues from the company standpoint.

What is the purpose of tagging? Fast personal categorization, semantics, knowledge sharing, interoperability for future p2p distributed settings? Should tags be used for only describing aboutness of a resource or should we allow other characteristics and qualities? There are many questions to ask. I am currently developing a socio-semantic collaborative tagging system.  It let users create a shared tag ontology and create relations between the tags.  <a href="http://www.fuzzzy.com/">www.fuzzzy.com</a>.  Check it out.

I need to decide whether spaces are allowed, allowed characters in general, max length of a tag etc. While the discussion about how to discover equivalent tags is interesting, interoperability on a technical level is step one.
