- Because, while bookmarks allowed users to record sites of interest, they soon
  grew to become unwieldy in terms of needing to be managed within the confines of
  a simple, hierarchical structure. It became apparent with the growing power of
  the new search engines that it was easier just to search for a particular site
  afresh each time – in effect, search engines were now able to provide a dynamic
  bookmarking service, or bookmarks on demand.
- These would become the social link managers, with links not randomly discovered
  or crawled by robots and spiders, but registered, tagged and rated by users for
  their own benefit, and made available to other users [n9].
  Robot wisdom was increasingly being challenged by the 'buzz latency' [11] that such a shared personal recommendation system creates.
- 9 more annotations...
- - Tim O'Reilly has talked about an 'architecture of participation' [12] whereby a grassroots user base creates a self-regulating
    collaborative network. The result of this approach is that the best applications
    become more useful for all participants the more that people make use of them.
  - Social bookmarking tools also share this characteristic: the more they are
    used, the more value accrues to the system itself and thereby to all who
    participate in it.
  - This orderly approach to cataloguing allows for both the validation and quality
    control of known terms to be registered within an information system. By
    contrast, the new link managers tend to use dynamic categorization systems
    whereby the user annotates links with whatever terms seem most relevant. Links
    are generally annotated with 'tags', which are free-form labels assigned by the
    user and not drawn from any controlled vocabulary. This is very much a
    'bottom-up' (or personal) approach compared with the traditional 'top-down' (or
    organizational) structured means of classification.
  - Another approach that has been discussed (and, in the case of del.icio.us
    even implemented as 'tag bundles') is the tagging of tags, which could result in
    the creation of hierarchical folksonomies
  - Bear in mind also that the terms used are, by definition, the very terms that
    real users might be expected to use in future when searching for this
    information.
  - an 'analogue' one in which items can exist in multiple categories, each
    weighted by relative popularity.
  - Search engines, at this point, tend to index and search a global space – not my
    local space. My space comprises the documents I am interested in and the
    documents of other users that I want to follow.
  - Usernames are presented first, followed directly by any tag or tag combination.
    If no username is presented then a '/tag' path element is prefixed
    to the path to avoid name collisions of tags with possible usernames.
  - Personal user accounts (groups sometimes provided)
    Mechanism for entering links, titles and descriptions
    Browser bookmarklets to facilitate entry [n18]
    Classification by 'open' or 'free' tagging
    Search by tag or user (Boolean combinations sometimes allowed)
    Querying of links based on popularity, users, tags, etc.
    RSS feeds
    Extensions such as browser plug-ins
