Web2ForDev 2007 was the first conference devoted to exploring the ways in which international development stakeholders can take advantage of the technical and organizational opportunities provided by Web 2.0 methods, approaches and applications.
There is so much data on Internet that for most of us it is a headache to find the right information. We’ve been using Google to search for key words in the last couple of years but I was told at the Web2fordev that it was not an up to date approach.
Lot’s of people in the world develop repository on the same particular topic that is of our interest and we would gain time and knowledge if we could access their references. That’s what you can get by using wisely your Delicious account. That’s still a quiet revolution but worth investigate with Christian from GTZ and Ninke from IICD. How does tagging work and why does it work so well? What is the added value of tagging? In the first interview Christian presents the tagging revolution and how it goes further than merely sharing information as it seems to be the best way to join your own community of practice. Ninke then explains how with a group of colleagues, she started to use a common tag to identify and retrieve resources which would interest all of them and the benefit of this single taxonomy.
