Abstract

Nowadays, weblogs or blogs are important tools for personal or workgroup websites publication. These tools give the
necessary performances to create, edit, evaluate, publish and file digital contents, in the framework of a standarized
workflow, and for managing the digital information life cycle. Nevertheless, these tools must be complemented with
existence of technical funcionalities necessary to get a correct implantation and use. The aim of the work is to
assess the way in which weblogs implement the technical solutions necessary to utilize correctly classification
tools. The evaluation took into account let to extract a collection of conclusions of great interest to analize the
state of art of the content classification tools integration and the weblogs management systems. As a general conclusion, it can be assured that the current generation of weblogs management systems do not offer all the desired performances for the classical classification tools, offering also a very heterogeneous scene.
