Nice new idea – tagging using colors! However, I am not sure how well people can associate music to colors. I think it would be rather appropriate to use color tagging to other things that can directly be associated to colors – like photos, designs or products.

Linkexplorer.net – experimental structured tagging

Linkexplorer.net – experimental structured tagging

The Linkexplorer organizes tagging by defining various relations between tags. This is similar to the approach used by BibSonomy. But there are different types of named relations (eg part-of, related-to, etc). This greatly helps to organize tags. However, I think tagging is quite uncontrolled and it will be difficult to have usable visualizations of relations between huge amounts of tags. Further, I am not sure if it should be called structured tagging. Some people use the term “structured tagging” to refer to structured metadata.

Matt McAlister :: How to combine both freeform and structured tags

I think structured tagging is not so well defined term. We are defining structured data. I think tagging is always free form and we may also tag structured data.
