Shoulder-to-Shoulder Instructional Media: My Tagging Screencast at NTEN! - Beth's Blog:... - 0 views

  • Step 1: Discuss Tagging Policy Tagging can get sloppy – spelling errors, verbs v.s. nouns, etc. You probably noticed that about my tag stream. This can make trouble down the road if you want to publish your resources to a web site using an RSS. So, come up with a few standard tags. But don’t get bogged down – you’re not creating a formal taxonomy, rather it’s a folksonomy. Also, people can add whatever additional tags they want so they can remember the item as well as a description. If you want to understand more about tag strengths and weaknesses, I recommend the following articles:      Tags Strengths, Weaknesses And How To Make Them Work by Robin Good   Tips for Effective Tagging from TechSoup   Tips for Tidying Tags by Alexandra Samuel
