plasticbag : Post one: A protest that the state of the art in tagging hasn't progressed enormously in the last four years. - Now here's a confession. I spent quite a lot of last year working around tags and I'm just a bit unsure how much of it I can talk about. It's all very aggravating. The project didn't launch.

plasticbag : Last week Flickr proposed limiting tags to 75 per photo and contacts to 3000, and there was a bit of an outcry... - Personally, I thought the move was reasonable. You don't optimise your service for 300 users at the expense of millions of others. However, they've found a better solution now, with limits only applying to non-reciprocal contacts.

Simon Willison : Flickr Machine Tags - Flickr Machine Tags. A new feature for API developers that lets them stuff arbritrary namespaced key/value pairs in to tags and query them using the API. Even without range queries, this will enable a ton of exciting new third party developments.

I'm just starting to get my head around the possibilities, although it's probably worth noting that I'm not necessarily sufficiently qualified to get the best view...
