Folksonomy for Pottery

Folksonomy is when people can append freely chosen keywords to organize data (wikipedia.)

As noted the other day, people are uploading pottery images to Flickr and organizing them.

Now there is much discussion about Folksonomies, their relevancy, hierarchy, how to make them better... However, something is indeed happening.

Here's some of the tags people have been putting on their pictures at Flickr:

art, ceramic, pots, blue, bowl, red, raku, kiln, glaze, potter, ceramics, art, the tea ceremony, ceramic artist, woodfire, fire
