Today's Learning Tag ... UML

Our company has an internal social search / tagging engine. Every few days I like to take a look at what some of the other techies have tagged. A quick scan often yields some diamonds! Over the next few days I'll post some of the "tags". In all cases, I've added the content to the Engineering Learning Wiki. For today's post, the UML content has been added to the software engineering section of the wiki.

This "hands-on introduction for developers" was created by Borland. The online manual provides great detail. Make certain you click upon the <More Details> and <Self Test> links to insure you have truly understood the concepts.

Here's a good tutorial on UML sequence diagrams you might want to share with your colleagues :

This is great Richard- another example of the power of tagging with editorial overlays to further present value in the discoverability benefits of social tagging.

Are you using Administrative screens to scan, or user built-in views (tagclouds,top tags etc?)

Hi Daniela:

Our tagging tool allows anyone, not just an admin like myself to see all tags across the network. One may restrict the tags one sees to just one's private communities. I like to take a look at all the tags. With a focused corporate group, it's worth the effort. It doesn't take that long.
