Convergence of meta-tag aggregation January 22, 2005

Posted by Andy Roberts in : Wiki, internet, learning , trackback

Technorati have recently introduced a tag aggregator which displays datastreams from the same Tag as it appears in del.icio.us, Flickr, some Wikis, and blog categories.

I’ve always had a bit of trouble understanding and using Technorati, so I went on to 43things and added a new task “I’d like to try out Technorati tag aggregator and use it” then I wondered if anybody else had the same goal, searched 43things tags for “technorati“, found one person with a similar task and added their phraseology to my list.

I noticed that he had tagged the task with “folksonomy” so I clicked on that and got a surprise

Up came the page for tag “folksonomy” with sections from Flickr and del.icio.us - so 43 things have implemented this already.

Meannwhile, yesterday I had a quick look at Frassle which combines blogging with RSS reading and tag tracking all in one place.

Are we getting overloaded with tools for reducing the information overload?
