However, i think the limitation you metioned is what is happening to every web application right now, not only for coComment. Lack of tag definition makes information lost, multiple definitions may lead to redundancy. Obviously, a suggestion would be: make sure you tag definiton just match. As for the difference between search engine and tag navigation, from my point of view, the first one can be considered as full user-oriented. Suppliers of information don't particate in the information retrieval activity; Defining search terms, constructing search clause, filtrating and choosing results, all of these activities are usually done alone by searchers. As for the latter one, information suppliers initialize the first step of search acitivity (or to certain degree, browse activity). Pre-defined tags are given to navigate at the very beginning. And generally speaking, because of suppliers' more accurate cognition for the information, tags always consistent with contents. The difference result in a point, search engine works well based on huge amount of information source, for example, if use Tag navigation for huge amount of information, the same thing is usually defined by many different tags by different suppliers; Tag navigation works more efficient when information amount is relatively limit. In coComment context, conversations of a single user usually are not of huge amount. So I think tag navigation would work better in this context; otherwise, definition of search terms for search engine is going to be a problem for searchers; some conversation can be lost if the search terms are not defined properly. For example, if a coComment users conversation include contents of "Nano", however, there is never "iPod" show up in the conservations, what if a searcher defines a search term "iPod"? He/she will never know the record of "Nano" conservation. On the other hand, if tags are supplied, no matter "iPod" or "Nano", readers can easily get the idea. So, in my opionion, if there is such facility added to coComment, Tag navigation should take priority, search engine can work as assistant function. What do you think ? Hi botanik,

What do you think? /bk hi tony,

The fact that you are open to ideas is impressive. I believe dingr.com has finished the technology by itself. However, it is inevitable to discuss the long term phenomenon existing in China IT industry that lots of applications copied others idea without own created features. Of course, the problem doesn't bring in a simple connection with the generic Chinese; The connection is with our IT industry. The purpose to highlight this issue is self-criticism, also a reminding to self-improvement. We definitly have the ability to learn, but now it is the new era for us to push ourselves to "think"! I am looking forward to see the innovations you mentioned become true in near future!--> Thanks for fikko’s feedback. The fact that you are open to ideas is impressive.

Thanks for giving us your feedback. It's a fact that we're imitating digg in many of the ways currently, mostly as an experiment to test whether this format will be acceptable to the Chinese taste. We want to thank digg for its pioneering in this field. However, The most important technology in digg is in its backend, which we cannot simply copy. So the innovations will come maybe in a very short time. We have some excellent ideas how to develop the new features. This is just a start, and I hope that you're not too offended by the similarity between us and digg. Come back to dingr sometime and I hope you'll see this change. I also hope that you don't link this with the generic Chinese. It is just a website, and digg has many clones in other languages as well. Once it's becoming a phenomenon, and it doesn't fit the needs of some people, a necessity of creating an own version will become evident.
