If you are a frequent reader of this blog you know I like unique and frequently, whimsical taxonomies. I like finding unique examples of how solid taxonomies (whether they are truly scientific or just for fun) help classify and identify a subject matter. This humorous but interesting topic came to us from The Ringer in their article, “The Official Taxonomy of Dating Show Parlance.”
Taxonomies might sound like a topic reserved for scientists, librarians or those with a penchant for organizing sock drawers, but they’re more than just tidy systems for serious subjects. In fact, they can be downright delightful when applied to whimsical topics. So, go ahead and classify your quirks, curiosities and everyday observations. Who knows? You might just discover a whole new way to have fun with the ordinary.
You can classify anything – medical codes, music and reality shows. The important thing to remember to use a professional with a proven history of building custom taxonomies. Access Innovations’ solutions are ANSI-compliant and implement state-of-the-art technology to speed tagging and reduce errors.
