Yesterday, a team from BBC Radio showed how it allowed listeners to “tag” songs using their cell phones - thanks to Phonetags - and they pointed out how this information helps to organize songs in different ways — suggesting new playlists for DJs, but also helping people find other songs, albums, or shows of interest.

In their own words: With Phonetags you can ‘bookmark’ any song you hear on BBC 6 Music. Just text X to 64046 when you hear the song. Then rate, tag and share your songs online.

Taggs rule!.

Spell with flickr is a word generator that uses tagged photos from the Flickr archive. Fabulous! Simply type in a word and see what happens. Created by kastner. [via ektopia]

You can do something similar over at amaztype - an Amazon visualiser. Type in a word and the result will be cover art from Amazon. You can click on the books and they show up in amazon. [via pasta and vinegar]
