Holly at NTEN has a post titled " Taxonomy vs Folksonomy." Taxonomy won! Holly also posted a response to the How Are You Using the NpTech Tag with " Taxonomies are for Chumps " post. Gavin emailed the note below and mentioned he will be summarizing all this on his blog. No surprise.

The NPTech tag is used on del.icio.us It started right when these sites had just started, and it arose from the need to develop a nonprofit technology taxonomy. The idea was to tell people to tag with nptech everything that is relevant and then look to see what was being tagged to see how the tags were being used.

If you are using Delicious, for example, you don’t need to create a list of tags or a taxonomy you have to stick to before you actually start saving bookmarks.
