Reviews

'Overall, this is a well-researched, collaborative and useful book. It provides an in-depth look into the practical benefits of social tagging and recommendation systems... I definitely recommend this book for people who are interested in user-generated metadata and how it can be used along with legacy and standards-based metadata approaches.' -- Getaneh Alemu * Catalogue & Index *


Pennington and Spiteri have pulled together a kaleidoscope of scenarios that explore the role and evolution of social tagging. From traditional library discovery systems and recommender systems to ontologies for dementia, effects on public policy to cognitive authority in Facebook communities, to Web 2.0, Web 3.0, and beyond. Tagging and linking-two words that imply so much more than what they say-provide the core for this work. A valuable collection for anyone wanting to explore the possibilities of letting people have their say through the simple act of contributing their own words...#goodread #liked -- Shawne D. Miksa, Associate Professor, University of North Texas
