I need to get a good system down.

• “font, fonts” are not two useful tags except for covering oversights. ie Not informationally rich There is that issue, whatever it would be called.
• throwing a ton of words at it or keeping it inside one keyword. I will never not be able to find 2ch.us if I simply tag it “imageboard”, however I could tag it: imageboard, imageboards, modern, overview, overchan, chan, community, communal, anonymous, forum, forums, …………

This came up with regards to the similarity and overlap found in these frequently-used tags: howto, how-to, documentation, reference. It is an issue because I put all my bookmarks to del.icio.us, and am eagerly awaiting TagFS (though the implementations I’ve read sound kind of lame… WHY NOT USE EXTENDED ATTRIBUTES, WHY WOULD YOU USE GODDAMN SYMLINK DIRECTORY STYLE BLAH BLAH)

But anyhow I think throwing a ton of tags at it is a fine method, excepting plurality… So, making a choice, I’ll stick with singularity. Then the problem is that taken to its extreme, every single item has “link” on it, and I will be tagging “link” every single time I want to archive the pointer to some information or whatever it is that I’m doing when I bookmark something. I get sick of typing the same things over and over. So then I’m just taking a slice from the middle, eliminating the too-general and too-specific when they become devoid of “useful” information.

“useful”

* get this category stuff in order, it’s very good. Monologue / Reference / Display (?) could be three parent categories.
