Tagging on MyBlogLog: transparent and accountable

MyBlogLog adds tagging. Very cool.

I love the fact that this tagging is transparent and accountable, the kind of thing you'd especially want for tagging people (v. say digital media objects.) I can see who's tagged me with what... so you'd best be careful!

Totally inspired by Cameron Marlow.

Transparent? Who are "mbl-deliciousbot" and "mbl-technoratibot"??? Every social media site can be gamed, MBL (alas...) is no exception.

Sure... Didn't mean to imply that MBL is bulletproof... Just that you can see not only the tag... but the user that put it there... For instance user "mbl-deliciousbot" and then delete it... (or simply complain about it, per above!) Transparent doesn't equal bulletproof, alas.
