- Abstract
- Social tagging, hashtags, and geotags are used across a variety of platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, WordPress, Instagram) in different countries and cultures. This book, representing researchers and practitioners across different information professions, explores how social tags can link content across a variety of environments. Most studies of social tagging have tended to focus on applications like library catalogs, blogs, and social bookmarking sites. This book, in setting out a theoretical background and the use of a series of case studies, explores the role of hashtags as a form of linked data?without the complex implementation of RDF and other Semantic Web technologies.

- Abstract
- When "metadata" became breaking news, appearing in stories about surveillance by the National Security Agency, many members of the public encountered this once-obscure term from information science for the first time. Should people be reassured that the NSA was "only" collecting metadata about phone calls -- information about the caller, the recipient, the time, the duration, the location -- and not recordings of the conversations themselves? Or does phone call metadata reveal more than it seems? In this book, Jeffrey Pomerantz offers an accessible and concise introduction to metadata. In the era of ubiquitous computing, metadata has become infrastructural, like the electrical grid or the highway system. We interact with it or generate it every day. It is not, Pomerantz tell us, just "data about data." It is a means by which the complexity of an object is represented in a simpler form. For example, the title, the author, and the cover art are metadata about a book. When metadata does its job well, it fades into the background; everyone (except perhaps the NSA) takes it for granted. Pomerantz explains what metadata is, and why it exists. He distinguishes among different types of metadata -- descriptive, administrative, structural, preservation, and use -- and examines different users and uses of each type. He discusses the technologies that make modern metadata possible, and he speculates about metadata's future. By the end of the book, readers will see metadata everywhere. Because, Pomerantz warns us, it's metadata's world, and we are just living in it.

- Footnote
- Das Buch beeindruckt durch eine große Vielfalt von Themen. So wird auch das Problem angesprochen, dass ein eigentlich sicheres Verfahren dadurch gefährdet sein kann, dass dem Angreifer Seitenkanäle der Information, wie etwa der Stromverbrauch einer Chipkarte, zur Verfügung stehen. Potenzielle Bedrohungen gegenwärtiger Verschlüsselungsverfahren sind der DNA-Computer und der Quantencomputer. Aber man hat die Aussicht, den Teufel mit dem Beelzebub auszutreiben, nämlich den Quantencomputer mit der Quantenkryptografie. Nicht ausdrücklich in dem Buch angesprochen ist das Problem der Authentifikation von Nachrichten. Der Empfänger einer Nachricht muss sich vergewissern, dass ihr Sender der ist, der er zu sein vorgibt. Sonst könnte sich ein Obeltäter bereits beim Schlüsselaustausch unbemerkt zwischen die beiden Parteien drängen und von da an jede Kommunikation unter ihnen unentdeckt verfälschen. Dagegen hilft auch das einzige nachweislich unknackbare Verschlüsselungsverfahren, der One-Time-Pad, nicht, da ein Angreifer gezielt »Bits kippen« und so die Nachricht, ohne sie zu entschlüsseln, verfälschen kann. Da selbst Fachbücher kaum auf dieses Problem hinweisen, wurde der One-Time-Pad bereits - nutzlos - in kommerzielle quantenkryptografische Programme eingebaut. Die in dem Buch besprochenen digitalen Signaturen können solche Probleme lösen, solange man nicht auf nachweislicher Unknackbarkeit besteht. Schmeh widmet sich auch den so genannten Hash-Funktionen, die aus einer großen Datei eine kurze Kennnummer errechnen und damit etwa Signaturverfahren beschleunigen können, da es genügt, diese Kennnummer zu signieren.
