Abstract

A server system and methodology include the following operations. A request for tags associated with a resource is received from a tag widget associated with the resource. Responsive to the request, a tag weighting engine is executed that identifies the tags and determines, respectively, individual overall weighting factors for each of the tags. The tags and associated overall weighting factors are forwarded to the tag widget within the client. The individual overall weighting factors for a particular tag is based upon a combination of weighting factors including a context weight factor for the particular tag. The context weighting factor for the particular tag is based upon a past context for the particular tag specified by a past user and an active context in which a user of the tag widget is operating.
