Paper Abstract:      Embedded tagging functionality in Web 2.0 applications allows users to organize arbitrary types of digital resources. Current suggestive tagging features recommend tags through “tag clouds” that emphasizes tags just on the basis of their popularity. This paper presents a tag recommender for a social bookmarking system. Tag recommendations are computed according to a semantic content analysis of the digital resource and exploiting the personal tagging history of users as well as the social tagging process within the system. A first evaluation against a snapshot of the BibSonomy dataset reveals that, in particular conditions, the combination of these three different aspects of a social bookmarking system can improve the precision of generated tag suggestions.
