Good article that looks at the accessibility (or relative lack of it) of folksonomy lists. The author makes some good points and provides a good example of how to style lists like this generally. But the problem, of course, isn't simply the inaccessible nature of folksonomies displayed on, say, Technorati or Flickr. If we had a system that aggregates folksonomies, associating them with resources generically rather than within the context of a specific site, then people who wanted accessible lists could have them. See, what we want is an RSS feed of, say, this page (and an OPML that lists them all).
