Abstract
This paper proposes a conceptual framework to explore the ways in which people work with in accessing, sharing, and navigating Web resources. In order to provide a better frame of a user's interaction with a folksonomy, an information foraging approach was adapted that denotes adaptive information seeking behaviors of users within human information interaction. A conceptual framework that consists of three different components from users' points of view was proposed: tagging, navigation, and knowledge sharing. This understanding will help us to motivate possible future directions of research in folksonomy and lay the groundwork for empirical research which focuses on qualitative analysis of a folksonomic and users' tagging behaviors.
