Tagging and blogging.
Tagging is used for people to recognise whether it be a picture of someone being tagged on Facebook or general tags to find things on websites or blogs. Being able to tag is very useful this is because it allows things that are being searched for to run faster and easier.
When I’ve finished writing this post I will add tags such as ‘Digital cultures, tagging, blogging’ this is because like meta data, it allows users to add categories.
Another example is general articles that get read online. This could be a 500 word post talking about the latest summer trend. Keywords and tags given in this article could be anything from ‘fashion, skirts, denim etc’ just words which are to do with whats being read.
Search engines such as google, are really useful because as long as the main subject of what you’re searching for gets typed in the first couple results are the correct ones, becuase it recognises the keywords. This is the same with YouTube. YouTube has no generated itself like google to guess what you’re probably searching for. If I typed in ‘Beyonce. . ‘ The YouTube results would show.
‘Beyonce at the Grammy’s’
‘Beyonce Single Ladies’
‘Beyonce Single Ladies dance routine’
All searches would immediately come up in either alphabetical order or in search of what has been looked up the most.
Twitter is one of today’s most used social network, like google you can always find out what is going on within the world by #TrendingTopics. You simply type in the Twitter search bar and see many other results as to what was typed in.
If its simple to tag and archive words online, what will be next? Will it come to a point where we ourselves don’t need to tag basic keywords, so instead it’s automatically done for us?
