2. The rise of facets
“Put simply, if you’re an
information architect, we
see facets in your future.”
-Peter Morville and Louis
Rosenfeld
6. Categorizing structured and unstructured content
Winery Subject
Flavor Sentiment
Year Entities
Grape Date
Region Industry
7. Folksonomy: can crowds categorize:?
The opportunity
Wisdom of the crowds

Fresher content
The challenge
Another messy silo?
Authority?
11. Faceted authority: Who do you trust?
Depending on the task at hand,
• I trust Olaf for finance content but not engineering
•Phil is often right, but I’ll need to confirm it
•I don’t trust Panhead to be accurate, but he might lead me to a
good source
12. 2 implementations of faceted authority
Records have authority facets> Facets 301: Facets have authority
