Social Bookmarking - Tagging. "Tag. You're it!" always comes to mind when we start talking about Tags. I am a librarian. I catalog. So I can relate to tags. The "social" thing, I'm not so sure I care about that, do you get the idea I'm not so concerned about what others are doing on the web? But I do like the idea of my favorites being all in one place, because between two work computers and my home computer, I have many of the same bookmarks but they are in different places on the different computers.
(Okay what were the questions again?) Are tags useful? I would say probably, since I have my financial links under a folder with that label, it would be easy to tag those websites as banking or financial. So, yes, tagging sounds useful. Advantages, might help my bookmarks be more organized, sometimes, I do have trouble finding them, disadvantages are the public aspect. So I would think you wouldn't want to tag a site that is a logged in site or one that is not generally public (it might make it easier to call it to someone's attention.)
okay, this one's done (in less than an hour, whoohoo!)
