Faceted navigation is useful for finding information on the Web, but facets created by professionals do not represent users' preferences and understandings of concepts. To make faceted navigation more suitable for users and fulfill users??? needs, a user???s perspective should be explicitly represented in the design of browsing interface. This study performed facet analysis on folksonomy tags to identify user-centric facets.
