Tagging seems to be on the micro level a method for describing information. On the macro level however, the function of tagging is reversed and it becomes a method for defining words. Essentially, tagging becomes an extenable multimedia vocabulary.Every time I put an “apple” tag on an image, url, audio file, or other type of information, I redefine that word. All that needs to happen now is to take that multimedia nature of content and apply it to description methods:If I see an apple, read about an apple, hear an apple, etc… I could use an audio tag, a video tag, a picture tag, a textual tag etc…Let’s come to terms with the fact that we are not using language to make sense of information, we are using information to make sense of language.
