Topic Maps

In response to my post on taxonomies and folksonomies, Matt Hodgson offered a solution of topic maps as a way to deal with the unstructured chaos that comes along with folksonomies. I have been looking at a similar approach of leveraging topic maps in my search for an enterprise search engine. Products like Recommind are [...]

Taxonomies and Folksonomies

Matt Hodgson has three posts on taxonomies, folk taxonomies and Folksonomies. I have struggled with trying incorporate taxonomies into our work product retrieval and precedent storage systems.
