This is a link to a video of David Weinberger talking about his book _Everything is Miscellaneous_. It's a hour long, but it's worth the watch - entertaining and informative. The basic premise of the book is that there is no one best way to categorize the world. Libraries have been forced to do this in the print world, but being forced into one organizational scheme is not required in the digital world.
