David Weinberger, author of Everything is Miscellaneous has conducted a very interesting interview with BoingBoing co-editor, digital rights activist and entrepreneur Cory Doctorow.
The genius of tags over taxonomy is discussed, as well as the ways implicit meaning can by mined from masses of disharmonious metadata to discover new meanings and do things like on-the-fly disambiguation.
The implication is that mess helpful. If only the same were true in the offline world!
Anyone else think this looks a lot like BlueList? :)
