With this system, your readers will be able to tag each of your blog&#8217;s entries. The idea is good and the principle seems to work. However, will this feature add something to all the blog readers&#8217; experience? This is the true question to ask when you evaluate these tagging systems. Are they adding something to the experience of my readers\/users? Or is the system just incorporating the system to follow the hype? <\/p>\n<p>Are these tags, these keywords, really worth it? If yes, are they applicable to all classification systems? <\/p>\n<p>Some tagging systems seem to work, and other does not. For example, I only use Del.icio.us to show interesting links to my readers. I do not really check what is bookmarked by other Del.icio.us users. There are just too many entries. The system is not convivial to search interesting stuff. I already subscribed to some tag&#8217;s feed and I always got the same stuff and lost my time to check at them. Now the only thing I do is to put other bloggers&#8217; Del.icio.us account into my inbox. Then I subscribe to my inbox&#8217;s feed and get all the interesting stuff they bookmarked. The Technorati tagging system is also interesting, but limited. He suffers from the same problem: there are just too many things being tagged.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; I&#8217;m questioning myself with this new &#8220;hype&#8221;. Meta-tags keywords failed&#8230; will Tags too? I do not know. I think that the concept is good for some application, but I doubt that they are useful for all things that have to be classified.<\/p>\n<p>Technoratie:   [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Feedster\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">Feedster<\/a>] [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/tag\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">tag<\/a>] [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/tagging\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">tagging<\/a>] [<a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/classification\" rel=\"tag\" target=\"_blank\">classification<\/a>] <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A week ago, Feedster started an Anonymous tagging prototype system.
