LJ tags

[cjsmith]

I can mark an entry with a tag, but I can't do a thing with it once it's there, huh?

Let's see. I could
- convert to S2
- go back and index everything I've written
- not mind that I can only see the last hundred of something

Alternatively, I could stick with the existing memories system.

Gee. Toughie.

Could be. I suspect technical difficulty is why they didn't toss it in for S1 as well.

Given that tags is mostly copying, not innovating, I'd expect it to go the way of tags elsewhere, and add things like rss-feed by-tag, tag-foreign-posting, and drop the 100-item bug... and since ACLing is one of LJ's actually distinctive features, tying them into that somehow (which *would* be innovative, something like allowing search-by-friends-tags or something.)
