Many useful observations and questions raised about how to analyze the tagging data we've collected and how to move from a folksonomy to a taxonomy. We also discussed the aggregation and publishing side and some initial goals for the NPTech Community site.

Is that a formalized taxonomy or not? There is a usefulness for a formal taxonomy or making it easy to find specific items, particularly for second wave adopters who may not be good at pattern analysis skills or people who can deal with messier data. A sort of "digg" for NpTech Tag items. I found that idea exciting!

By aggregating the results of folksonomy production it is possible to see how additional value can be created. I also found this bit extremely important - the whole that actually talks about tagging in the context of "wisdom of crowds" - so what are the differences between, say, tagging and collaborative filtering with digg.
