Cole, Michael J. and Gwizdka, Jacek (2008): Tagging semantics: investigations with WordNet. In: JCDL08 Proceedings of the 8th ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2008. p. 446. Available online

The content of a tag sequence references both a user's concepts and the user's conceptualization of an information object. The tagging history of 823 users of the Delicious social tagging service is analyzed using WordNet. Three semantic measures of the tagging content are developed: the level of category references, the changes in category level for each noun as the tagging sequence unfolds, and the scope of concept coverage as the compactness of the WordNet subgraph for the noun senses. Observed patterns of concept reference as a function of sequence position hint at dynamic properties of the tag production process by marking a trace of cognitive activity. If tagging is object categorization, these measures provide a view of the personal categorization behavior of non-professionals and illuminate biases in the production of 'folksonomies' due to tag production processes.

Software design is the act of determining the user's experience with a piece of software. It has nothing to do with how the code works inside, or how big or small the code is. The designer's task is to specify completely and unambiguously the user's whole experience.

-- David Liddle, From Bringing Design to Software, edited by Terry Winograd, 1996
