Using Tags to Increase Findability

Tagging content, references or other BLOBs systematically is not for everybody an easy task. Most are just lazy.

"Although I've explored different strategies for findability, it seems that faceted classification through the attachment of metadata (such as tags) to resources remains the most compelling strategy. It can suit a diversity of audiences, purposes, and needs."
