This microformat ‘rel=”tag”‘ is a very interesting idea.
I saw it suggested a while ago somewhere that using wikipedia as a Foundation Ontology would provide a really simple way of bootstrapping the so-called “Semantic Web”. It seems to me that a combination of the rel=”tag” idea with wikipedia as the tagspace might be one way of doing it from the ground up.
It certainly gets around the problem that when I tag something as “python” I mean the programming language, whereas someone else might mean the reptile. Wikipedia distinguishes the two, with different URLs, and that solves the problem. As long as everyone uses English of course.
