Which platform is known for popularizing social tagging and incorporating it into its content organization ?

  • A.Facebook
  • B.Twitter
  • C.Delicious
  • D.Instagram

Answer: C

The platform is Delicious.

Delicious (del.icio.us), the social bookmarking site launched in 2003, built its whole organisation on user-assigned tags: users saved web links, labelled them with tags of their own and could browse everyone's bookmarks by tag. It is the standard example used when folksonomy and social tagging were first described.

Facebook, Twitter and Instagram later adopted tagging and hashtags, but they are social networks first and were not the platform that popularised social tagging as a way of organising content.
