Weinberger on Tagging
David Weinberger really has a way with describing web phenomenon. Here he talks about the context of tagging (think delicious) and what we are doing collectively with it:
So, we’re creating this context-free realm of free-floating metadata, like word magnets on a refrigerator door, that we will paw through and assemble, and, most important, do things we haven’t yet thought of.
The web still delights me even after working with it full-time for the past 6 or 7 years.

Google just launched another search appliance: the Google Mini. It costs $5,000 which seems to be a good price point for a lot of non-profit organizations to make an investment for their site or intranet. It will index up to 50,000 documents, which should be plenty for most needs in this market as well.
