A computer-implemented method of employing organizational context within a collaborative tagging system, the method comprising:
- receiving a query for a tag within the collaborative tagging system, wherein the query specifies at least one attribute of the tag and a selected artifact;
- determining, using tag records that match the query;
- and
- outputting at least a portion of each tag record that matches the query.
16-19. (canceled)
A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage device, wherein the computer-readable storage device is not a transitory, propagating signal per se, the computer-readable storage device comprising:
- computer-usable program code that receives at least one tag for an artifact from a user;
- computer-usable program code that determines at least one attribute of the user;
- computer-usable program code that stores a tag record comprising the tag, the attribute of the user, and an association of the tag with the artifact;
- computer-usable program code that receives a query within the collaborative tagging system, wherein the query specifies at least one attribute of a tag and a selected artifact;
- computer-usable program code that determines tag records that match the query;
- and
- computer-usable program code that outputs at least a portion of each tag record that matches the query.
