TagCombination

MeatballWiki | RecentChanges | Random Page | Indices | Categories

A TagCombination is an unordered list of tags (keywords):

separated by delimiters, such as white space, commata, plus-signs
being an argument for a tagging service (such as e.g. DiigoService or Google:Google)

This informal definition could be made exact as the program specification for a program that takes a list of tags as input and produces a set of URLs, that are previously "tagged", i.e. marked with one or more word-marks by users. Any permutation of the tags produces exactly the same result.

Example: On the bottom of this page you find the TagCombination:"wiki+annotation+tag+tags+TagCombinations+TagCombination" The output of it is accessible via http://diigo.com/tag/wiki+annotation+tag+tags+TagCombinations+TagCombination

Benefits:

TagCombinations organize Web-, especially Wiki Pages, without great effort:

no separate extension of the different wiki-engines is necessary
the mono topic oriented Category System in wikis can be easily imbedded
allow AccidentalLinking and AccidentalCollaborating? in the set of all wikis (, who use Diigo type Tagging).
support universal WikiWeaving and WebWeaving

Note:

Using the social annotation service DiiGo, out-of-the-box tagging can be realized for all wikis in the world, now 2006-12-07.

Discussion:

I've started making distinct notes about WikiWeaving and WebWeaving since I agree with the value of ...Weaving existing pages together in order to achieve Wiki:OnceAndOnlyOnce. I am finding that DiigoService solutions also help in these undertakings, as do TransClusion methods that are especially nicely implemented in the Oddmuse software. -- HansWobbe

This page should describe what a TagCombination is or it should be refactored into DiigoService. -- SunirShah

Yes Sunir, agreed. So I made a first try ;-) -- FridemarPache
I prefer to retain this page as a focus on TagCombination(s), as opposed to DiigoService, especially since I fnd myself gravitating towards using DelIcioUs? as opposed to Diigo for tagging. -- HansWobbe

Does Google know the TagCombination URLs of Diigo (see page bottom)?
