As of today I’m moving some of my tag-related musings to You’re It, a blog on tagging that includes such venerable folksonomists as Jon Lebkowsky, Clay Shirky and Dave Weinberger. Rob hopes that this new outlet means that I’ll finally stop talking about tagging in bed.
My self-introduction on You’re It touches on my recent work around “found” engagement: channeling the spontaneous political conversations that occur in the blogosphere and other online forums into structured policy-making processes. I believe tagging could help connect activism and engagement in ways that make public participation more reflexive and widespread.

Alexandra,
I have posted an article on my blog talking about why social bookmarking should merge with the blogosphere. I will be honored if you review it. The URL is below.
