I love the web. The web should allow anyone to access any experience that they need without the need for native install or content walled garden.
My Wikipedia-based AJAX Tag and AJAX Tag 2 scripts were temporarily broken due to an issue with Yahoo's service. Big thanks to the Yahoo developer team, especially Toby Elliot, for quickly resolving the problem! Of all the Web 2.0 APIs I've used, Yahoo's has the most helpful and responsive support.
I'm searching for del.icio.us alternatives to integrate into my AJAX DeliTag application. My goal is to enable simultaneous tag uploads to del.icio.us and other similar services.
I've been pondering the use of tags lately, and noticed a lack of diversity in tagging practices. Many use tags for blog promotion or linking related content. I favor the latter, as it aids in content discovery. However, popular tags on sites like Technorati are often too broad (e.g., "books","blogs") making them less useful for finding niche communities. I propose using more specific sub-tags alongside broader ones. For example, if blogging about Asimov's Foundation series, include both "Asimov" and "Foundation Series" as tags. Tools like my Ajax Tagger and tagyu.com can help suggest relevant tags. I encourage everyone to use a wider range of tags to enrich the tag space and improve content discoverability.
