The Semantic Web is an ecosystem of interaction among computer systems. The social web is an ecosystem of conversation among people. Both are enabled by conventions for layered services and data exchange. Both are driven by human-generated content and made scalable by machine-readable data. Yet there is a popular misconception that the two worlds are alternative, opposing ideologies about how the web ought to be. Folksonomy vs. ontology. This is nonsense, and it is time to embrace a unified view. Would you like to put a link to this lecture on your homepage? Фолксономия - Викизнание. Из проекта Викизнание Фолксоно́мия (англ. folksonomy, от англ. folk — народный + англ. taxonomy — таксономия) — неологизм, обозначающий практику совместной категоризации посредством произвольно выбираемых ключевых слов. Другими словами, это понятие относится к спонтанному сотрудничеству группы людей с целью организации информации в категории, которое обращает на себя внимание, благодаря тому, что оно полностью отличается от традиционных формальных методов фасетной классификации.
Как правило, это явление возникает только в неиерархических сообществах, таких как общедоступные веб-сайты, а не в многоуровневых коллективах. Так как организаторы информации обычно являются её же основными пользователями, фолксономия производит результаты, более точно отражающие совокупную концептуальную модель информации всей группы. Примеры Примером фолксономии являются пометка ключевыми словами страниц в del.icio.us или фотографий в Фликре. Внешние ссылки.

Tagging and Folksonomy Schema Design for Scalability and Performance. Taxonomies and Folksonomies. Aspects of broad folksonomies. Фолксономия и/или таксономия. Как часто в последнее время приходится читать фразы в стиле: "[...] И, все-таки, мы решили перейти от иерархических классификаторов к облакам тегов. Это позволит нашим пользователям [...] " Закономерность? Пожалуй, здесь все спорно. Фолксономическая категоризация: блог, топка, интернет, каталог, поисковые системы.Таксономическая категоризация: Интернет - Персональные страницы - Блоги - Блоги о поисковых системах.
И уже тут налицо (возможный) недостаток таксономического подхода. Фолксономический подход лишен этого недостатка: можете привязать объект к любым узлам. В каждом из подходов есть свои плюсы. В результате использования такого фолксо-таксономического подхода можно было бы организовать более удобную, семантическую навигацию. Folksonomies: How we can improve the tags - Lars Pind. The discussion on folksonomies continues. Folksonomies—like controlled vocabularies—are here to stay, and instead of argue about their merits relative to controlled vocabularies, I would like to focus on how we can make them better.
What I have noticed is that I suck at coming up with good tags for my links in delicious. I just cannot really come up with good tags to write—frequently I will just repeat words from the title—and as a result, most of my tags end up being applied to only that one entry, with a few tags, such as “web” and “software” being applied to so many links as to make them useless. This is a problem. After all, tagging and categorization are about divide-and-conquer. If you categorize everything in the “other” category, you have achieved nothing. And I am not alone in this. Clay Shirky Elizabeth Lawley Lars Pind I suspect that the expertise that we lack, is the one that professionals like Lou Rosenfeld has.

Фолксоно́мия (англ. folksonomy, от folk — народный + taxonomy таксономия, от гр. расположение по порядку + закон) — народная классификация, практика совместной категоризации информации (текстов, ссылок, фото, видео клипов и т. п.) посредством произвольно выбираемых меток, называемых тегами. Другими словами, это понятие относится к спонтанному сотрудничеству группы людей с целью организации информации, которое интересно тем, что оно полностью отличается от традиционных формальных методов фасетной классификации.

Folksonomies - Cooperative Classification and Communication Through Shared Metadata. The Creation of Metadata: Professionals, Content Creators, Users Metadata is often characterized as “data about data.” Metadata is information, often highly structured, about documents, books, articles, photographs, or other items that is designed to support specific functions.
These functions are usually to facilitate some organization and access of information. Administrative, structural, and descriptive metadata are three broad categories of metadata (Taylor, 2004). This paper focus primarily on descriptive metadata which identifies and functions to organize information based on its intellectual content. Traditionally metadata is created by dedicated professionals. While professionally created metadata are often considered of high quality, it is costly in terms of time and effort to produce. User created metadata is a third approach, and this paper focuses on grassroots community classification of digital assets.
Tagging Content in Del.icio.us and Flickr “a social bookmarks manager. Beta. TAGora » Tagging. Discover social tagging websites | Learn how to use them Social tagging websites Social online tagging is one of the core activities of the so-called Web2.0. Therefore, there are dozens of social tagging websites, and it is virtually impossible to draw a complete list of them.
The collection you find here gathers some of the most popular such communities; however, if you find that someone is missing, do not hesitate to go to the contact page and send us a mail to inform and help us to keep this list as up-to-date as possible. Del.icio.us is the world-wide reference site for social bookmarking. Millions of users use it daily to store, share and tag their favorite webpages. Flickr.com allows users to upload and tag your photos, browse others’ ones and join groups of users with similar interests. Last.fm Users of last.fm listen to music online for free. Bibsonomy.org is a collaborative website for collecting, sharing and organizing scientific citations and bookmarks. PennTags / Explaining and Showing Broad and Narrow Folksonomies :: Off the Top :: vanderwal.net. I have been explaining the broad and narrow folksonomy in e-mail and in comments on others sites, as well as in the media (Wired News).
There has still been some confusion, which is very understandable as it is a different concept that goes beyond a simple understanding of tagging. I have put together a couple graphics that should help provide a means to make this distinction some what clearer. The folksonomy is a means for people to tag objects (web pages, photos, videos, podcasts, etc., essentially anything that is internet addressable) using their own vocabulary so that it is easy for them to refind that information again.
The folksonomy is most often also social so that others that use the same vocabulary will be able to find the object as well. Broad Folksonomy Let's begin with the broad folksonomy, as a tool like del.icio.us delivers. The broad folksonomy has many people tagging the same object and every person can tag the object with their own tags in their own vocabulary. Tagging and searching. Many Web sites have begun allowing users to submit items to a collection and tag them with keywords. The folksonomies built from these tags are an interesting topic that has seen little empirical research.
This study compared the search information retrieval (IR) performance of folksonomies from social bookmarking Web sites against search engines and subject directories. Thirty-four participants created 103 queries for various information needs. Results from each IR system were collected and participants judged relevance. Folksonomy search results overlapped with those from the other systems, and documents found by both search engines and folksonomies were significantly more likely to be judged relevant than those returned by any single IR system type.
Book Chapter. As the number of resources on the web exceeds by far the number of documents one can track, it becomes increasingly difficult to remain up to date on ones own areas of interest. The problem becomes more severe with the increasing fraction of multimedia data, from which it is difficult to extract some conceptual description of their contents. One way to overcome this problem are social bookmark tools, which are rapidly emerging on the web. In such systems, users are setting up lightweight conceptual structures called folksonomies, and overcome thus the knowledge acquisition bottleneck. As more and more people participate in the effort, the use of a common vocabulary becomes more and more stable. We present an approach for discovering topic-specific trends within folksonomies. It is based on a differential adaptation of the PageRank algorithm to the triadic hypergraph structure of a folksonomy.

FOLKSONOMIES VERSUS AUTOMATIC KEYWORD EXTRACTION: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY - ECS EPrints Repository. InfoTangle :: The Hive Mind: Folksonomies and User-Based Tagging :: December :: 2005. By Ellyssa Kroski There is a revolution happening on the Internet that is alive and building momentum with each passing tag. With the advent of social software and Web 2.0, we usher in a new era of Internet order. One in which the user has the power to effect their own online experience, and contribute to others’.
Today, users are adding metadata and using tags to organize their own digital collections, categorize the content of others and build bottom-up classification systems. User-Based Tagging and Folksonomies Unlike social-networking sites such as LinkedIn and Friendster, which concentrate on developing relationships, social sites such as del.icio.us, 43Things and Flickr focus their attention on organizing data. Del.icio.us is a social bookmarking site. 43Things is like a giant, global to-do list.
Flickr is a digital image storage and management website. Technorati allows users to perform searches on blog content. All of the above sites offer a view of the global “tag cloud”. Folksonomies: A User-Driven Approach to Organizing Content. By Joshua Porter Originally published: Apr 26, 2005 Thanks to Patric Conrad for providing a Belorussian translation of this article. Many of the design teams we talk to face the same major issue: how to organize the information on their sites. From creating navigation schemes to developing site hierarchies to refining checkout sequences, it’s highly important for design teams to organize information effectively for their users.
Information architects frequently must deal with the problem of managing more and more information. The Frustration with Taxonomies One of the most common strategies for organizing content is to place it in a taxonomy. This classification of living things works well for scientists because everyone is dealing with the same information: the information about living things. Although taxonomies are common, it can be difficult for design teams to implement them.
Folksonomies: A New Approach Folksonomies Address Taxonomy Difficulties Folksonomies aren’t a cure-all, however. Folksonomies: power to the people. ISKO Italia. Documenti paper presented at the ISKO Italy-UniMIB meeting : Milan : June 24, 2005 Introduction In recent times, an unprecedented amount of Web content has begun to be generated through web logs, wikis and other social tools thanks to lower technology and cost barriers. A new host of content creators is emerging, often individuals with the will to participate in discussions and share their ideas with like-minded people. This is to say that this increasing amount of varied, valuable content is generated by non-trained, non-expert information professionals: they are at the same time users and producers of information. We have gone past a critical mass of connectivity between people that has introduced a new revolutionary ability to communicate, collaborate and share goods online. Folksonomies attempt to provide a solution to this issue, by introducing an innovative distributed approach based on social classification.
Overview of classification schemes Limits of taxonomies. Folksonomy. An empirical analysis of the complex dynamics of tagging systems, published in 2007,[8] has shown that consensus around stable distributions and shared vocabularies does emerge, even in the absence of a central controlled vocabulary. For content to be searchable, it should be categorized and grouped. While this was believed to require commonly agreed on sets of content describing tags (much like keywords of a journal article), recent research has found that, in large folksonomies, common structures also emerge on the level of categorizations.[9] Accordingly, it is possible to devise mathematical models of collaborative tagging that allow for translating from personal tag vocabularies (personomies) to the vocabulary shared by most users.[10] Origin[edit] Folksonomy is a type of collaborative tagging system in which the classification of data is done by users.
Folksonomies consist of three basic entities: users, tags, and resource. There are two different groups of folksonomies. Folksonomies: Tidying up Tags? Social Bookmarking Tools (I): A General Review. Social Bookmarking Tools (II): A Case Study - Connotea.
