  • "It is the single best thing we've done. I can't tell you how much we've
    spent on formal taxonomies, but suffice it to say that it's enough for me to wonder why I haven't gone into business for
    myself!

    "Why does it work? Chiefly because the sites submitted are specific to a group or discipline,
    and no matter how hard we try, having a degree in library science does not give you a degree in engineering (insert
    discipline here). We do not speak their vernacular. We do well enough to add value with controlled terms, but these
    folk tags have a life of their own.

    "These tags are a fantastic resource - user warrant - for keeping
    the controlled vocabularies up-to-date. They provide us feedback we could get no other way. Given the ease with which
    people can tag things – and yes, we could argue about whether there should be some cognitive burden for quality's
    sake - we gain a unique insight via this process.
