Hey Peter, why not allow user generated tags for your photos?

I would have added:

interface design "interaction design" "information architecture" filter search SRP navigation

…to this pic.

Good question! The short (real) reason is I'd forgotten to check permissions. The long answer is that I'm using Flickr in an unorthodox way to organize my own thoughts about search, so at least for now, my inclination is to not allow others to play freely in my sandbox...but since the whole point of this experiment is to learn, I'm going to open things up and see what happens :-)

why not position the user generated tags within the facets artifact? or use the UG tags for this:

* associate user search terms to results using the UG tags as bridge (they sort of do this but sometimes results using the tags as terms on a search do not match the results when using the tag as a filter on a given search. ie. Search "getting started camera" returns fewer results than searching "camera" and using the UGTag "getting started)
* inform facet attributes labeling candidates (using users words...)

Does having three navigation schemes (breadcrumbs, facets, tag cloud) increase choice paralysis or it increases other good experince aspects?

I agree that the UG tag facets should be integrated into the left-hand Narrow Results area (with numbers of hits in parentheses).

I think NCSU's stacking breadcrumbs...

...works better than the traditional > model.

Interesting to see the adaptation of tag clouds as a rating mechanism rather than the familiar use to show distribution of documents by topic.
