One of the ways that the millions of blog posts are being interconnected is by the inclusion of Technorati tags in blog posts. When a group of bloggers use the same tag in their posts, then readers can quickly click that tag and see what other blog entries have been so tagged. See, for example, what happens when you click on a tag for one of the recent library and info science conferences:

• ALA annual conference: ala2006 ala2005
• ASIS&T annual conference: asist2006 asist2005
• Computers in Libraries conference: cil2006
• Internet Librarian conference: il2006 il2005

While as a classification scheme, tagging is a crude method, it still is useful and fun.
