Participate in a government document social tagging experiment

Free Government Information needs your help to investigate whether social tagging of government documents is a viable idea.

They have stashed 32 documents from the Government Printing Office's EPA Web Harvesting Pilot Project in the Internet Archive. They would like as many people as possible to bookmark, tag and provide brief descriptions of all 32 of these test documents using the del.icio.us bookmarking service.

  2. Tags are keywords what go under each of my blog posts. It is a new "Web 2.0" tool that helps searchers find what they want on the web, by typing those keywords into a search engine.

    It's just an improvement on search the internet.
