Working within the constraints of a very limited data sample, this study attempts to identify some of the information management and meaning construction practices of an online distributed classification (a.k.a. free tagging or ethnoclassification) community. Specifically, this study seeks to investigate the social and communicative practices that emerge when users are encouraged to share web links with one another by using a metadata keyword, or tag, to demark a social group, apart from using other tags to classify links according to an emergent taxonomy.

A study of del.icio.us tagging including discussion of synonym handling (basically it just quotes Skirky's argument).

are contributing not only to that particular community, but to the larger del.icio.us community and their efforts.
-
It can be argued that distributed classification systems such as del.icio.us do not exhibit some of the features commonly thought of as necessary to support online communities (features such as the ability to access ‘profile’ knowledge about individual users, the ability to communicate directly with other users, and the ability to rate the quality of submissions). It seems that del.icio.us did not set out to become that kind of community tool, so those features might never become part of its toolset. However, one question to explore further is to what degree such features would enhance the sense of community, or if there are other ways in which del.icio.us accomplishing that.
-
it is hard for people to make the initial conceptual shift from traditional forms of classification (using fixed taxonomies) to distributed classification schemes (using flexible taxonomies). The freedom to define individual and social structures of classification emergently can be perceived as chaotic, lacking rigor and utility. However, the more comfortable users become with a system’s features, the more aware they become of the benefits of distributed classification, and the more aware they also become of working within its limitations.

Key Concepts
-
Just six tags (python, delicious/del.icio.us, programming, hacks, tools, and web) account for 80% of all the tags chosen, and a long tail of 58 other tags make up the remaining 20%,
-
ou submit your links to a website, adding some descriptive text and keywords, and del.icio.us aggregates your post with everyone else's submissions--letting you slice and dice the information any way you like. Posts with the same keywords are clumped together, and if enough people link to a URL, a loose classification emerges. (Biddulph, 2004)

Liz DorlandHere is information about the nature of the user community for things like del.icio.us. This is a Blog done with TypePad. It's not a free service, but you can try it free for 30 days. It looks very professional, and is supposed to be very easy to use.

Randall RodeThis is an excellent article about distributed, user created taxonomies for web site links. And they reference FURL, so it seemed appropriate to FURL it.
