In this study we try to show the dual role of Folksonomies, which was an
important technique for organizing web content by users, in the same time we can
consider it as a significant tool in searching, particularly when users add tags that are
employed such as keywords in retrieval systems. Tagging is an important tool to reflect
users’ views and understandings of certain web content, Tagging is often carried out
collectively in a participatory manner, and tags can be structured to construct what is
called ‘Folksonomy’, which can capture the collective interests and similar needs by
engaging the user in the description of Web contents, through making Folksonomies
which can make a clear difference in the searching skills, and the retrieval strategies by
giving the users the opportunity to organize information by how he see it through his
logic, and to understand the working way of tagging system, which help to economize
efforts and to discover information through an automatic semantic relationship, based
on the relevant and convergence of concepts.
Hence, Folksonomy is introduced as an important aid in retrieval systems based
on uncontrolled vocabulary. in the process of searching information, therefore the
considerable role that play in the information retrieval field, and work to overcome the
problems of research, that confront the user when he used search engines, that care with
recall not with relevancy, whatever the disadvantages Folksonomy, satisfaction the user
and responding to his needs by his own through adding limited words or short sentences
may hide special meanings behind it, what reflect the degree of difference between the
ideas of individuals, as a result to the variety of the intellectual content, as well as they
limit the problem of collisions of language between the terms. So, Folksonomy stay a
controversial subject about the reliability of tags added by the user, and whether
Folksonomy can be produce Thesaurus based on the uncontrolled language. This
research is part of an important set of research that is able to examined and discussed.
