What I think will happen is that we'll see the evolution of tag hierarchies and clustsers in our social bookmarking systems such that there will be no ambiguities. For example it will be clear what kind of a 'apple' is being referred to when we see it in context - IT -> Computers -> *Apple* -> Mac Food -> Fruit -> Apple -> Granny Smith This is one of the reasons why I think RawSugar have stolen a march on del.icio.us with their innovative approach to tag clustering and hierarchies. “Maybe service one has to broadcast to the blogosphere to use the tag “applecomputer” instead…”

I really don’t think that’s the way its going to go John, because it just seems so artificial and unnatural. What I think will happen is that we’ll see the evolution of tag hierarchies and clustsers in our social bookmarking systems such that there will be no ambiguities. For example it will be clear what kind of a ‘apple’ is being referred to when we see it in context -

IT -> Computers -> *Apple* -> Mac

Food -> Fruit -> Apple -> Granny Smith

This is one of the reasons why I think RawSugar have stolen a march on del.icio.us with their innovative approach to tag clustering and hierarchies.
