Enriching tagging systems with Google query tags

Christoph Trattner, Denis Helić, Seid Maglajlic · 2010

Abstract. As recent research shows, efficient navigability of tagging systems is only possible if the number of tags grows hand in hand with the number of tagged resources. However, the number of resources grows typically faster than the number of tags. In this paper we analyze how enriching of user tags with tags generated from Google queries influences navigability in tagging systems. The analysis dataset comes from an online encyclopedia called Austria-Forum. The first results are promising and show an increase in the number of resources that can be efficiently reached by navigation.
