thank you for teaching me nothing useful
[Bonus Link:] Guardian article by Jeff Jarvis about “Tagging”. A good introduction if you don’t know much about it– What it does and why it’s important etc.
Tagging has implications that extend FAR beyond the blogosphere. Right, Sig?
[Bonus Link:] Oh, and if you STILL don’t know what RSS is, this BBC article offers about as good an intro to newbies as I’ve ever seen.
Teach me!
Hugh Macleod (at gapingvoid) points over to a post entitled The hi-res user experience: Learning increases resolution from Kathy Sierra (at Creating Passionate Users) and then drew the cartoon above that perfectly describes the frustration many people…
There was a very interesting article on “MIT Technology Review” that was talking of the implications of TAGGING (well, not only but mostly…) that I read some months ago and that I think everybody should read:
“Social Machines”:

Of all your drawings, this may have just become my new favorite, if only because it so accurately describes nearly everyone I work with.
Tagging is really a more multifaceted way of looking at things — and finding things. Jeff Javis sums it up nicely.
Great cartoon BTW
Good golly is this gaping void rant jolly.
And timely (for me). i’m back to blogging. appreciate your thoughts on my Jan 1 entry, handsome hugh.
