Distributed Tagging and Auto-Complete – an example

By sleslie on January 6, 2005

From a somewhat hysterical slashdot thread examining the user generated tagging systems in Flickr, del.icio.us and the like came a reference to this little experiment to introduce auto-completion and suggestion of del.icio.us tags based on a user’s previous tags. This is a step in the right direction – if it can start to pick up tags from the overall site, then maybe one of the issues with this overall approach, lack of synonym support and inconsistency applying tags, maybe isn’t as bad as it first appears. – SWL
