The document summarizes the OpenTagging project, which aims to build an open tag space for knowledge sharing. It launched in April 2008 and is developing methods and APIs to allow tag-based sharing across social connections, existing tag sources, and platforms like desktop, web and mobile through an interoperable platform using open data formats. The project seeks to evolve beyond current tagging systems by taking individual, community and applications perspectives into account.
