Abstract

Claims9
A computer-implemented method of employing organizational context within a collaborative tagging system, the method comprising:
- receiving at least one tag for an artifact from a user;
- determining at least one attribute of the user, wherein the at least one attribute comprises a security level associated with the user;
- storing a tag record comprising the tag, the attribute of the user, and an association of the tag with the artifact;
- determining a subset of tags of the tagging system according to the security level of the user;
- and
- presenting the subset of tags to the user, wherein the tag for the artifact is selected from the subset of tags.
A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage device comprising computer-usable program code stored thereon that employs organizational context within a collaborative tagging system, the computer-readable storage 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, wherein the at least one attribute comprises a security level associated with 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 determines a subset of tags of the tagging system according to the security level of the user;
- and
- computer-usable program code that presents the subset of tags to the user, wherein the tag for the artifact is selected from the subset of tags.
