Today I read a great article on zooie’s blog about the future of tagging.
Vik Singh wrote about two ways for improving tagging:
- Support label hierarchies/groupings,
- Use multiple (but ‘normalized’, explained below) labels per object.
He also wrote about a possible machine learning algorithm for hierarchical multi-labeling tags.

Paul Heymann and Hector Garcia-Molina experimented with an algorithm for generating hierarchies of tags. It seems to be fairly successful. I’m waiting to see which sites try implementing it.
