Folksonomy as a way to manage information overload in Web 2.0. I have been 'bookmarking' sites on my home and work computer for many years and attempting to keep them somewhat organized in files to be able to find them again.As your career continues I have bookmarked many, many sites - most of them valuable, but in healthcare the deluge of information on a daily basis is impossible to keep up with and in default I rely on a few sites that I remember and am comfortable with and listserves to remind me to check websites for new information. So in Vanderwals' scaling I have been tagging for personal use for years.<br />The Delicious site has been an enlightening experience for me. I was able to import my personal bookmarks from my laptop and work and home computers into one area that has provided some structure (for me) using 'tags' that make sense to me. This folksonomy and opportunity to 'tag' has actually made it much easier for me to again use many sites for information by looking for my tags rather than a specific site, and assisting in managing my information overload. I'm still at the personal functionality but will work my way up the scaling and functionality.Carolyn Trumperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00511646777050474271noreply@blogger.com
