Smith riffs on Ian Davis' take on why tagging is expensive. In a
nutshell, the lower costs of classification are traded for higher costs
in finding content. Gene makes much more sense of it than just that, though. At the end of the day, as with so many things, tagging is a great tool, but not a silver bullet. [ia/ blogs]
