Comments on: I really don’t care what you had for breakfast – how social sub-network tagging can end irrelevance on Facebook, Twitter, etc. http://collaborationevangelist.com/2009/04/14/social-sub-network-tagging/ Craig Underwood's blog about Web 2.0, loyalty and customer service Wed, 09 Feb 2011 18:54:36 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: chu http://collaborationevangelist.com/2009/04/14/social-sub-network-tagging/comment-page-1/#comment-46 chu Fri, 24 Apr 2009 21:50:03 +0000 http://collaborationevangelist.com/?p=392#comment-46 Thanks Bill. Have been using TweetDeck over the past couple of weeks - which at least gives you some options. Hopefully they will do more soon. CHU Thanks Bill.

I use TweetDeck to sort out the people I follow on Twitter by categories. I could never make use of the native twitter page except to remember whether I have already tweeted on something. However, that only starts to address the problem. We need to work on the intersection of writer, tags, and reader. I cannot subscribe to particular categories of a blog or particular hash tags of a Twitterer. Of course, I can browse a blog’s categories or search twitter hash tags. But this is only a start.

You've articulated something that's probably in the back of a lot of people's minds but not on the tip of their tongues. I agree with Matt. It's amazing this is not available. I'm relatively new to Facebook so the problem here is not as acute, plus I try to use Facebook for social and Twitter for business. Although I'm relatively new to Twitter, imho it's a complete mess. Once in a while I pick through the rubble to find some good stuff, but even with a limited number of people to follow there's way too much extraneous noise. The key would be how to add tagging without creating a lot of overhead to the poster. Low overhead is one of the reasons why people post to these tools, it's also probably why there can be so much junk. Maybe it's a relationship filter of some kind? Great post Craig.

It's kind of amazing that neither service supports tagging of network members. Tagging was the original Web 2.0 concept, after all. A Google for twitter groups - http://www.google.com/search?q=twitter+groups - shows a few third party attempts at implementing this. Again, not sure if the same goes for Facebook.
