Tag My Posts

I added a little bit of code to my Typepad template today and now you can tag my posts in del.icio.us.

At the bottom of the post, where you can click to comment or get a permalink, you can now click to tag the post.

If you are a del.icio.us user, that's all you need to know.

If you aren't a del.icio.us user, you'll be taken to a login page where you can sign up.

So why do you care? 

Well tagging the Internet is an interesting phenomenon. The audience generates the index.

If you are a del.icio.us user, please tag my posts.

If you aren't, give it a try.  I think you'll find the experience eye opening.

Comments

Clay Shirky has also been commenting on the future of tagging as the next big thing. Certainly seems more likely than the semantic web, works now and is useful for real people (as shown above).

Can you figure out a way to reflect the tags we come up with? For example, perhaps we can navigate the archives via the community tags and not just the categories you use.
