Also from Ted Leung, but apparently referenced multiple other places in the blog-navel-gazing-o-sphere, is the potential use of Dewey Decimal categories, as being experimented with by Lisa Williams at her delightfully entitled weblog.

I do like the idea of shareable - if not necessarily standardized - categories, as a layer of metadata atop commentary and trackback. Certainly bears watching...

Ya know...librarians rarely organize their personal lives by library standards...it's always the civilians who take this on...My friend, V., was telling me how she had organized all the books in her office based on LC classification. Makes me tired just thinking about it.
