So much to learn, so little time - Tagging, folksonomies and technorati

I started from basics here in order to fully understand the business applications of these social media tools. 

Tag - A non-hierarchical keyword or term assigned to a piece of information.

Folksonomy - The practice and method of collaborately creating and managing tags to annotate and categorize content. Del.icio.us is an example of a web site using a folksonomy. I just signed up! Are you registered, why or why not?

Technorati - Internet search engine for searching blogs (the RMD media team uses this often!)
