  Part of learning to use this tool involves understanding how to tag.
  
  I would like you to tag anything you bookmark in diigo, and consider the following from http://www.dlib.org/dlib/january06/guy/01guy.html :
  "To succeed, attempting to improve tag literacy (or tag etiquette) in the folksonomy world involves two processes. Firstly, the community needs to be ready to set rules and agree upon a set of standards for tags. Secondly, users need to be made aware of and agree to follow these rules.
  
  At the moment, although there are no standard guidelines on good tag selection practices, those in the folksonomy community have offered many ideas. Ways in which tags may be improved are presented frequently on blogs and folksonomy discussion sites. In his article on tag literacy, Ulises Ali Mejias suggests a number of tag selection "best practices" [14]. These include:
  
  * using plurals rather than singulars
  * using lower case,
  * grouping words using an underscore,
  * following tag conventions started by others and
  * adding synonyms."
  
  Any questions or comments on this?
  Suggestions for common group tags?
  
  I suggest the following tags:
  online_pedagogy
  blended_learning
  effective_online_practices
  
  you?
