Abstract

An aspect provides a method, including: accessing, using a processor, a store of historical user object event information; building, using the processor, a tagging profile based on the store of historical user object event information; determining, using the processor, a new user object event; and determining, using the processor, a priority for tag generation for the new object event using the tagging profile. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

accessing, using a processor, a store of historical user object event information comprising object search information associated with queries provided by a user during searches for stored objects;

building, based upon the object search information, a tagging profile for the user using the store of historical user object event information, wherein the tagging profile identifies at least one tag category to be associated with the user based upon content identified from the object search information;

identifying creation of a new user object associated with the user; and

generating at least one tag for the new user object, wherein the generated tag is identified using the tagging profile and prioritizing possible tags for the new user object using the tagging profile.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the determination is based upon determining a priority tag category for tag generation and determining a lower priority tag category for later tag generation.

3. The method of claim 2, further comprising generating a tag associated with the priority tag category within a predetermined time of the new user object event.

4. The method of claim 3, further comprising thereafter generating a tag associated with the lower priority tag category as a background process.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the tagging profile is user specific.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the tagging profile indicates tag categories frequently used by the user.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the tagging profile is group specific.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the tagging profile indicates tag categories frequently used by a group.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein the group is associated via cloud account data with a user associated with the new object event.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein a user object is an object created by the user and resident on one or more devices associated with the user.

11. An information handling device, comprising:

a processor;

a memory device that stores instructions accessible to the processor, the instructions being executable by the processor to;

access a store of historical user object event information comprising object search information associated with queries provided by a user during searches for stored objects;

build, based upon the object search information, a tagging profile for the user using the store of historical user object event information, wherein the tagging profile identifies at least one tag category to be associated with the user based upon content identified from the object search information;

identify creation of a new user object associated with the user; and

generate at least one tag for the new user object, wherein the generated tag is identified using the tagging profile and prioritizing possible tags for the new user object using the tagging profile.

12. The information handling device of claim 11, wherein the determination is based upon determining a priority tag category for tag generation and determining a lower priority tag category for later tag generation.

13. The information handling device of claim 12, wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to generate a tag associated with the priority tag category within a predetermined time of the new user object event.

14. The information handling device of claim 13, wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to thereafter generate a tag associated with the lower priority tag category as a background process.

15. The information handling device of claim 11, wherein the tagging profile is user specific.

16. The information handling device of claim 15, wherein the tagging profile indicates tag categories frequently used by the user.

17. The information handling device of claim 11, wherein the tagging profile is group specific.

18. The information handling device of claim 17, wherein the tagging profile indicates tag categories frequently used by a group.

19. The information handling device of claim 17, wherein the group is associated via cloud account data with a user associated with the new object event.

20. A product, comprising:

a non-signal storage medium having processor executable code stored therewith, the code comprising;

code that accesses a store of historical user object event information comprising object search information associated with queries provided by a user during searches for stored objects;

code that builds based upon the object search information a tagging profile for the user using the store of historical user object event information, wherein the tagging profile identifies at least one tag category to be associated with the user based upon content identified from the object search information;

code that identifies creation of a new user object associated with the user; and

code that generates at least one tag for the new user object, wherein the generated tag is identified using the tagging profile and prioritizing possible tags for the new user object using the tagging profile.
