Annotation/Tag driven knowledge organization
A couple of cool sites are copying delicious and creating organized knowledge using tags. There is one site that is doing it around events at upcoming.org This is a way for people to autocategorize information and allow others to search their categories. It reminds me a little of the early days of the web when everyone was adding tags to their HTML pages. However the nice thing about these tags are that they are entered by others and not the author of the event/link so they have some resistance to being gamed. The whole area is called folksonomy.
