In SF this week.

I’m playing with the Flickr Crew in SF this week. I was hoping to have the API feeds up and running by now but my tablet died on Friday (all backed up, just waiting for it to come back from hp) and now I’m in SF. It’ll be next week before they are back up. [...]

Advanced Tagging and TripleTags

Therefore it’s no surprise to see them constantly pushing things to the limit, and this is why we’re seeing the start of curious tagging methods.Let’s look at the obvious one that I deal with…geotaggedgeo:lat=53.1234geo:long=-2.5678The second two tags have three parts; its namespace ‘geo’ and a key/value pair ‘lat=53.1234′…. There are many places around the internet where you can read about why user created tags and ‘folksonomies’ are good, I’ll not go over them again here.Why do we need TripleTags?Tags are great there’s no doubt about that, but key/value pairs are great too and have their own slightly different uses.
