The Commons – folksonomy meets the Library of Congress
One of our most popular speakers last year, George Oates of Flickr, writes in detail today about a collaboration between the Library of Congress (the US National Library), and Flickr to enable anyone to tag the Library’s photographic collection.
For now it’s a pilot project of about 1500 photos, but hopefully this will be greatly extended in future.You can read more at Flickr, and the Library of Congress blog.
Great reading, every weekend.
We round up the best writing about the web and send it your way each Friday.
