This is a fun task. It's interesting to me as a person who cut her teeth on controlled vocabulary to learn about tagging (although I knew about it long before this exercise.) It's about time the general population got to organize information in ordinary language and in ways the average person would look for it. On the downside, it's hard for me to relate to the sheer number and nature of some of the tags. It seems no stone is left unturned. Maybe someone sent their second grader to the dictionary to find every word that could possibly be used to describe a site!
I had a fun link from one of the IS del.is.ious sites. I chose cartoons because it had a fair # of links, but was disappointed to find the site an encyclopedia of cartoon information, instead of the cartoons themselves. Never fear, however. There was a link to the actual films, and I got to watch a cartoon of Little Lulu from the mid 40's, called Bored of Education. (Are you laughing yet?) Anyway it is a real period piece and chock full of politically incorrect humor!
