Tagging & Tag Clouds



Salam guys,

Long time no write. Been very bz in this project. Anyway i got a task from a lecturer at UM to include a tagging function in DSpace @ UM. So i started to search for any clue regarding the task. I came to this website https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Tagging and i have to admits that this website and its author (Christophe Dupriez) helps me a lot. Long story short - i manage to complete the task given in 4 months(part-time). Here is the preview:



From this task, i learn that its not to hard to add new functions in existing DSpace source code. As long as you know java very well and you know the DSpace architecture you can add any functions you want easily. I also been given a task to 'make over' the DSpace @ UM looks. Here is the new looks :



It also has a new name : Theses @ UMalaya
Sounds 'macho' isn't it? Till my next writing (that i don't know when).. Adios..
