Tags 99% bad?

Der Frage, ob Tags wirklich soo toll sind, geht der Artikel Do Tags Work? nach.

The promise of all these tags-the gathering clouds on the horizon, a harbinger of what can only be intellectual global warming-is nothing short of a full-fledged folksonomy. Large segments of lawless Internet will become manageable and accessible in a way that is out of the reach of underfunded libraries and other institutions charged with information stewardship. By harnessing the wisdom of crowds, this roiling sea of knowledge will be calmed; its power will light a billion tiny “aha!” light bulbs over a billion tiny avatar heads.

Toller Artikel - leider etwas lang. Aber lesenswert :)
