At Wikimania 2005 I had a talk with a blogger about tagging. I claimed that tagging was useless because the broad tags I was using (Wikis, Web, Switzerland, Iraq) are good for organizing my blog, but no good for finding related information.

The blogger then said that he used it a lot for his own research on a daily basis, but with a lot more detailed tags: Names of people, locations, and events.

But how to add this automatically?

Should there be a special link? Or should we just use every single page link as a tag, ie. add rel=”tag” to LocalLink and to every InterLink?
