Setting up a more coherent tagging system

Hey folks... was just thinking that as the community grows we might want to add another category system to enforce a little more consistency in the tagging. This wouldn't take away the possibility for free tagging... just another drop down menu like the one we have for 'shows' right now.

Some suggestions for possible tags

VLEs, interviews, k12, linux, cool school tool,

something like this... maybe a set of checkboxes... just to give a little more coordination. Then we could highlight a given tag on a given day for instance.

EdTechTalk#47
May 28, 2006

A special episode dealing with the o'reilly web 2.0 conference debate. We were fortunate to have been joined by Doug Symington, Tom Raftery (THE IT@CORK GUY) and Harold Jarche who all gave their 2 cents on the issue. I must say, holding down the fort without Jeff is not nearly as fun as having him around. This is an important issue I think... and one we'll probably see again. Several representatives of O'reilly.net were contacted and offered a spot on the show. John Battell replied, but said family committments would not allow him to join us. (I'd like to apologize to Tom for getting his name wrong 18 times during the show... hee hee. oops.)
