If you have a slide show about tagging, please point me to it.
15. Bookmarks are our junk drawers. Only hyper organized people put them into folders, clean out dead links, or click around the site to figure out why they were bookmarked in the first place. - Laura Gordon-Murname http://www.flickr.com/photos/ledgard/
35. The F Word Folksonomy is the “vocabulary” or collection of tags that results from personal free tagging of web resources for one’s own use and the aggregate collection of tags that results from a group tagging project.

37. The T Word Taxonomy is the practice and science of classification. A taxonomy might also be a simple organization of objects into groups, or even an alphabetical list.
42. http://www.flickr.com/photos/thesullys/61095237 Tagging systems are possible only if people are motivated to do more of the work themselves, for individual and/or social reasons. They are necessarily sloppy systems, so if it's crucial to find each and every object that has to do with, say, apples, tagging won't work. But for an inexpensive, easy way of using the wisdom of the crowd to make resources visible and sortable, there's nothing like tags. David Weinberger
