Browsable facets

Categories, Facets—and Browsable Facets? by Jaimie Sirovich, UX Matters (Aug 23)

For people designing taxonomies for e-commerce sites, this article could be the ticket. It's about creating a browsable facet - a situation where facets (attributes) can intersect with a taxonomy of categories. Product search can have this problem - where the structure is based on brand (Sony, Panasonic etc) and it is difficult to filter by facet.

Id really love to be a part of group where I can get feedback from other knowledgeable people that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Appreciate it!
