The term ‘folksonomy’ occurred in 2003, it became popular in 2004 when it was defined in a new Internet Web 2.0 solution which has promoted the idea that users are part of the information producers and publishers.
Folksonomy › Folk
› Taxis (classification)
› Nomos (management)
“Folk classification system”

T. Vander Wal explains that “folksonomy is the result of personal free tagging of information and objects (anything with a URL) for one’s own retrieval. The tagging is done in a social environment (usually shared and open to others). Folksonomy is created from the act of tagging by the person consuming the information.”

The aim of investigation was to explore Latvian websites which offer the possibilities of folksonomy and to determine how informative tags are, as well as to find out how popular among the users the allocation of tags (democratic indexing) is.

A survey was made by sending 100 questionnaires via e-mail and by using website Frype.com.
Considering that there is raising number of computer and the Internet users in Latvia – in 2008 57% of population uses the Internet – it is valuable to know how far the ability to work with IT is evolved, and whether tagging is actual for the Internet users.

All analyzed websites has the option to tag users’ own-uploaded information.
This kind of opportunity in Latvia appeared only four years ago when Draugiem.lv started to offer new options of Internet, and sites of the Internet diaries allowed users to tag their own diaries.
There is small number of websites in Latvia which offers the options of Web 2.0, but those who does, offers these functions in good quality.

Analysis of the items was made by studying tag clouds of five websites by choosing 4 most popular keywords (2 for each item – text, video, image) and evaluating their adequacy to items by following criteria:› Word adequacy to the status of tag; › Emotional aspect – to what degree emotions
affect tagging process; › Popularity of tag; › Originality of tag; › Number of tags for the item.

Tendency of creating codes as “mcx” and “xxx”.
The keywords mostly are generalized. Users tries to express their emotions and
individuality, trying to create stylish tags, for example, traditional tag “skateboard” is placed with “sk8” which is common among skaters.
User creates tags from verbs and interjections as “ha ha”, “oh”, “huh” etc.

Avoids to use word sets, for example, in case of “martial arts” they use two separated words “martial” and “arts”.
Users often use keywords which do not describe the image, they mostly follows their associations.
Differences of languages, as well as singular and plural forms.

There are different opinions about good and bad points of folksonomy.› Mark Suster has said that folksonomy is
democratic solution of information classification;› he also admits that there are some
problems – it is possible that folksonomy is the less nonorganized alternative of all.› Tagging and folksonomy can not be
controlled.
![Page 34: Foksonomija](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051516/559ea0ae1a28abd3048b4854/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Folksonomy does not control› lexical synonymy,› morphological synonymy and› syntactic synonymy.
As a result, user is not allowed to change ending of the word or expect that searching program will offer automatically the correct form of the word.
![Page 35: Foksonomija](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051516/559ea0ae1a28abd3048b4854/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Folksonomy is one of the KOS (knowledge organization systems) which has grown out of the Web 2.0 development.
Folksonomy is the result of personal free tagging of information and objects.
To describe the content of information, user must be objective, he must imagine by which keywords other users could search the item, as well as he needs to be neutral and eliminating emotional aspect, which is done while doing classical indexing.
![Page 36: Foksonomija](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051516/559ea0ae1a28abd3048b4854/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Folksonomy is a new alternative for organizing information cheaply, because classical library classification systems need finance and specialists for creating thesaurus.
The results of questionnaire show that most of the Internet users like tagging and it seems that tagging is a very useful option, not mentioning the problems which appears when searching information by user-created keywords.

Hypothesis – Internet user created keywords are general and do not describe items particularly enough – has been proved,› because, as internet users admit, side
effects and individuality has great sense while doing the tagging, wherewith losing the ability to be objective and neutral to marking items.
