Free Online Word Cloud Generator H2O Playlist: Home Tag Cloud Generator Public could help BBC to index archive Pilot project allows listeners to add searchable keywords to audio programmes The BBC could ask listeners to write programme information about its radio news bulletins in order to make its vast archives more accessible to future generations of licence payers. Under the Annotatable Audio project, radio listeners would be able to mark and add descriptive keywords to segments of programming they want to flag for bookmarking or sharing with others. It means they could highlight a specific item within a lengthy bulletin stream and return to that particular point later. Inspired by Flickr and Wikipedia, the project is a private, early-stage pilot of social software produced at BBC Radio and Music Interactive that lets listeners slice programmes into chunks that can be identified by using tags. "How are people supposed to find the specific bit of audio or video that they're looking for? Comments From BeachBum, 11:27 10 November 2005 Peter, the whinging Pommie bastard.
Tagxedo - Tag Cloud with Styles 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). 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. One form of explicit user created metadata was popularized in the late 1990’s with link-focused websites called weblogs (Blood 2000).

The Need for Creating Tag Standards at The NeoSmart Files Web 2.0, blogging, and tags all go together, hand-in-hand. However, while RPC standards exist for blogs and the pinheads boggle over the true definition of a “blog,” no one has a cast-in-iron standard for tags. Depending on where you go and who you ask, tags are implemented differently, and even defined in their own unique way. Even more importantly, tags were meant to be universal and compatible: a medium of sharing and conveying info across the internet — the very embodiment of a semantic web. Unfortunately, they’re not. To Space or Not to Space, that is the Question This one is probably the most obvious obstacle and the most destructive when it comes to tallying tag popularity or making those pretty tag clouds: Can tags have spaces in them or not?! Yesterday we were discussing how best to implement the tagging feature in the upcoming blogging engine, Habari, and this topic caused quite a lot of confusion. Obviously the need for spaces in tags is an important one.
Yippy Cloud Creator You’re It! » Blog Archive » Peter Morville: the Tagsonomy interview Last week I got the chance to talk to Peter Morville about his recent article Authority, his excellent new book Ambient Findability, and the future when everything will be taggable. As usual Peter has some provocative ideas. I’ve asked him to watch the comments here, so feel free to post your comments or ask questions. Gene: How is authority related to findability? Peter: My authority article stirred up a fascinating discussion on Web4Lib centered around this question. Historically, librarians have been comfortable with the notion that the most frequently cited academic papers (and their authors) are also the most popular, findable, and authoritative. I know many people who don’t get tagging. I hate tagging. If “it’s so much easier to drag and drop an email message into a folder than it is to construct keywords that define its aboutness” then what do you do when an email fits equally well in multiple folders? I’m an impatient information architect. You say the future is multi-algorithmic.
Nuages arborés en ligne Vous avez vu le concept apparaître sur le blog de Jean, et quelques exemples sur ce blog, mais ça fait quelque temps que je n'en ai pas parlé ici, des nuages arborés de mots. Après quelques semaines de test d'une interface web de construction de ces outils de visualisation, il est temps de dévoiler le nouveau site web de TreeCloud : treecloud.org ! Alors quelle utilité pour ces nuages de mots grimpés aux arbres ? Simple aperçus esthétiques du contenu d'un texte ? Eh bien pas seulement, comme nous l'avons montré avec Delphine, ma co-autrice dans notre article présenté en juin aux JADT 2010 à Rome. C'est maintenant dans la foire aux questions de TreeCloud, ces visualisations peuvent également servir à analyser des textes dans le cadre d'une démarche assistée par ordinateur : Et maintenant, à vous de jouer, pour trouver d'autres usages !
Technologies du Langage: Outil: TreeCloud Vous vous souvenez peut-être de mes nuages en forme d'arbre (je crois que le premier que j'ai publié était celui de la rumeur autour de Laurence Ferrari en décembre 2007, suivie de près par le buzz Laure Manaudou nue un peu plus tard). Philippe Gambette, étudiant au LIRMM, a développé un outil Open Source qui permet à tout un chacun de générer de tels nuages. C'est ici :Voici par exemple le nuage de l'ensemble des discours de campagne de Barack Obama. On peut faire différentes choses avec la coloration des mots. Ici elle reflète la position dans le temps. Le rouge correspond au début de la campagne (children, Irak, war, world), le bleu à la fin (McCain, Wall Street, crisis, taxes). Si vous voulez en savoir plus sur les techniques sous-jacentes, vous pouvez écouter la présentation que nous avons faite à Dresde (Allemagne) pour l'IFCS'2009 (c'est Philippe qui parle) : A vous de jouer maintenant... des journées entières dans les arbres et les nuages !
