Classification is very important because as human, since the beginning we’ve used classification to know where things belong. Wright states that classification comes from two basic cognitive capabilities: binary discrimination and liberalization. With these capabilities we are able to make higher-level of distinctions. Areas all over the world has come utilize this way of classification without any interference. Now that we are in the digital age, we need a way to classify the vast data the internet contains. Using metadata, we are able to describe and give information about other data. Metadata, according to Badke, does not exist on the internet. The internet’s search engine uses keywords instead of metadata, so you are able to get the information from the internet but, the problem arises when you want to retrieve the information you are looking for. In order to help the internet’s classification better, folksonomy is used. Dye shows how folksonomy greatly improves the search engine’s classification by using tags made by the users. As humans, we need classification in the internet in order to retrieve data faster and easier. Since users are making their own tags to classify, information can be retrieve faster.
