The synapses of the brain
A variety of strategies exist for integrating new learning paradigms: social media, the immersive internet and collaborative learning.
And if you are like me it is all very overwhelming--exciting, inspiring--but difficult to manage.

What is a #Hashtag?The # symbol, called a hashtag, is used to mark the keyword or topic in a Tweet. Any Twitter user can categorize or follow topics with hashtags. Hashtags are the symbol which establishes that the phrase following it is an element of a folksonomy of some kind. Whereas a keyword search is just that, while it picks up hashtags which are the same as the keyword, it doesn’t describe an intentional community of practice using the word.You can check out http://hashtags.org/ to see trends and see if a tag exists. or check out http://hashtags.twittersearchengine.net/wiki/Twitter_HashTags_Wiki the hashtags wiki, or the dictionary: http://www.hashdictionary.com/Hashtag

Taxonomy
Taxonomy is the practice and science of classification. Typically this is organized by supertype-subtype relationships, also called generalization-specialization relationships, or less formally, parent-child relationships. In such an inheritance relationship, the subtype by definition has the same properties, behaviors, and constraints as the supertype plus one or more additional properties, behaviors, or constraints.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomy ©Peter Halaszhttp://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Biological_classification_L_Pengo_vflip.svg
Taxonomy or Folksonomy?

Folksonomy
A folksonomy is constructivist/connectivist in nature, created by a local or familiar cohort of participants. It is only by connecting the use of our words, labels, terms and participants that develops their meaning. This empowers the participants because they can share and collaborate in the creation of content, expressing their passion and individuality.
Sites like http://pinterest.com are building folksonomies of images.
A folksonomy is a system of classification derived from the practice and method of collaboratively creating and managing tags to annotate and categorize content;[1][2] this practice is also known as collaborative tagging[3], social classification, social indexing, and social tagging.

Geo-tagging. If you notice on your settings in Twitter, you can allow your location to be included in your tweet as a metatag, not part of your 140 character allowance. Geotagging (also written as GeoTagging) is the process of adding geographical identification metadata to various media such as photographs, video, websites, SMS messages, or RSS feeds and is a form of geospatial metadata. These data usually consist of latitude and longitude coordinates, though they can also include altitude, bearing, distance, accuracy data, and place names. It is commonly used for photographs, giving geotagged photographs.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geotagging
