The Tagging 2.0 panel I organized at South by SouthWest 2006 in March is now a Tagging 2.0 podcast among the many SXSW 2006 podcasts you can download.The Tagging 2.0 panel was one of the “highly-rated panels” this year, tied for first place with a number of other entertaining and informative panels too so check out their podcasts as they become available as well.

Taglines is a visualization tool prototyped at Yahoo! research labs to see tags with floating thumbnails along a primary axis of time. It’s quite a neat zeitgeist kind of interface.

Among other things, you can click and hold on tags or thumbnails and of course, change the speed which you “move” through them over time. This project was discussed at the excellent tagging workshop at the WWW2006 conference last week in Edinburgh, Scotland. The paper describing the system: Visualizing Tags over Time by these authors: Micah Dubinko, Ravi Kumar, Joseph Magnani, Jasmine Novak, Prabhakar Raghavan and Andrew Tomkins - all from Yahoo! Research, USA.

Stacy Surla, an information architect at MITRE Corp., posted the IA Institude mailing list last week about a social bookmarking system they’ve implemented on their intranet.

She also plugs an upcoming (next week!) Collaborative Web Tagging Workshop in Edinburgh.

In a followup to that same post, Cody Burleson from IBM mentioned that in addition to the Dogear application they use internally at IBM for “delicious-style” page tagging, they’ve also implmented a collaborative “people tagging” tool called Fringe tied to their BluePages corporate directory.
