Headshift: Benefits of Social Tagging

Headshift, an English social technology consulting firm, teases some firm benefits of social tagging. Instead of, as many IA folks seem to do, latching onto how folksonomies (sp?) fail, they look at the glass as half full. Social tagging is one way to get some relatively reliable content classification out of a large number of people. Supported by a basic and uncontroversial official taxonomy, IA types actually have a hope of getting organizations to reveal their underlying classifications.
