Abstract  

Folksonomy enables people to tag their information collaboratively with flat and free keywords. The outcome is that more people are participating into the process of categorizing knowledge without knowing or studying metadata schema like DC (Dublin Core)or DDC(Dewey Decimal Classification). The pros and cons of folksonomy are illustrated with the example applications such as del.icio.us,flickr and wikipedia. Finally, as a technology to organize information,folksonomy should adjust increasingly to the Web itself which is driven by people who use it daily.
Key words： Folksonomy      Knowledge organization      Metadata      Semantic Web
