Thing #13
We've actually gotten a lot of practice tagging through the course of this, um, course. I've used tags in Flickr, Rollyo, Facebook, Google Reader, etc. I have not found them to be very helpful for myself. This may just be me, though, as I spend (waste, according to my wife) a lot of time organizing my computer files including my bookmarks. I have lots of folders with many subfolders that make sense to me, so tags are a little redundant. It is nice that many of the sites we have visited have buttons for delicious, magnolia and other bookmarking sites, but it seems like a job I would rather do in a more linear, organized fashion with folders.

It's all what we are used to using. How much easier would it be to find what you need if everyone used tags that you could identify with for your needs? Instead of running searches in Google, Bing, etc. you could merely take a look in your delicious or Diigo account for people that use similar tags. If we all share, then there will be less work searching.
