  abstract = {This paper analyses folksonomies, an emergent web 2.0 technology. Folksonomies are found to be primarily a social dynamic phenomenon, and several key tensions are hypothesised that keep the folksonomy community vibrant. Strengths and weaknesses of folksonomies are analyzed w.r.t applicability to browsing and search, and suggestions are given on how to alleviate search problems by bringing in additional semantics into folksonomies, while trying to avoid upsetting the delicate social balances discovered.},
