Using Social Tagging

Why Social Tagging Isn’t Enough for High Value Content, Seth Earley, Sept 20.

Seth Earley argues that social tagging "would be completely inappropriate when trying to organize high value content. For instance, content used for customer support, marketing processes, asset reuse, or processes with a compliance component."

His earlier posting of Folksonomy vs Taxonomy outlines where social tagging is useful in conjunction with controlled vocabulary (not as a replacement).
