Weinberger So What?
After reading this book one of the main points that I gathered was the importance of the use of metadata and tagging. As the amount of information continues to grow, organization of that information will become more and more important. As for the so what, I am a frequent user of the internet and I believe the internet alone will benefit from tagging and the use of unique metadata for the fact that new information goes up on the internet every second and will continue to do so well into the future. Also I will most likely be in a technology oriented career soon and the use of tagging and metadata will most likely be an important part of my career as well.
