Abstract:
In this paper we present a review of systems that follow the novel paradigm of
Social Semantic Bookmarking. Social semantic bookmarking allows for the annotation of
resources with tags extended by semantic definitions and descriptions that also evolve
(collaboratively) within the same system. We analyzed nine different systems that extend social
bookmarking in the direction of more semantics; i.e. that enable their users to add semantics to
the folksonomy. We studied the systems regarding the realization of the social semantic
bookmarking paradigm, the features offered to the users to add semantics, what kind of
semantics can be added, and how the system makes use of the semantics. We will present
commonalities, main differences and distinctive features, and future trends.
