Shared Tags and K12 Web 2.0

Thanks to Alan Levine for suggesting the idea of a common tag in order to share our specific resources with each other and move to a little more 2.0 action, and John Blake for pointing out a few other places where we can share media. I am really interested in seeing which services educators are moving towards.

I have been using a shared tag for resources to be added to the “Geocaching for Educators” section of the wiki. (Glenn E. Malone has added so many great resources there)

A shared tag is a great idea, since everyone can benefit from the feeds. So I have added a shared tag and feeds to the various sections of the wiki for automatic updates of each section according to the newly tagged content.

I think del.icio.us will be a good place to start to aggregate the tags. Later on, we could move to technorati and other services, and then merge all the different feeds together. Any suggestions for other services? The only requirement would be that any shared tag would have an RSS feed.
