Tag may mean a label.
In FB, tagging a post makes a copy to the Timeline of the person being tagged.
There are pros and cons for using FB tags. e.g. Someone may receive multiple of a post that is being revised incrementally.
In FB, the individuals in a photo may be tagged. There are pros and cons for using FB photo tags.
Some algorithms used by FB to process photo tags have features. e.g. I have a photo with U Osadha of Dhammananda Vihara. FB asked me to tag Ashin Pannagavesaka (Uzin Bobby Myo Tun, A69) even though he was not present in the picture. The algorithms do not handle the case correctly for Theravada Buddhist monks.
In the early days, there is game called “Tag”.
There used to be Rag Tag Bands.
TAG – Technology and Architectures Group
by KMZ
The last group I worked in my first company. Took me 10 years in that company to get into that group, starting from the very bottom when I arrived in US. The very first year in US, every interviewer told me I would get bored in several months in the job I interviewed for. Some of them even referred me to outside Agencies.
This first company was and still is, a retail company, where technology and IT were treated as second class citizen. Even worth the new retechnoligies we tried to push out, the higher ups were not enthusiastic about it. They see IT being the money spending “Cost Center” not a “Revenue Generating” aka merchandise selling department.
After they pushed out long time VP of IT was transferred to newly created online entity website, TAG was abolished. I was in the middle of another technologies, Data Warehouse/Data Mart and Internet, got transferred into Database group.
IBM, having deep connections to our IT, we were running Big Blue, like any other big IT shops. IBM got a foot hold to sell their web/internet technologies. I was in the minority of IBM’s internet products (1997/1998), and was pushed aside. It didn’t work out well so Microsoft’s Professional Services was brought in. My former VP asked me to come to his new department, but I got pushed aside again because Microsoft folks complained that I asked them too many questions.
That was the end of my career with the retail company.
