Re: Merging Drupal terms, controlling vocabulary
Glad you liked it! Autocomplete is definitely a must-have for any good tagging software. Another thing that Drupal has that I wish desktop software (and other web tagging software) would integrate is the ability to define synonyms (for instance with Term Merge). Particularly in public and collaborative tagging environments, being able to specify which tags are synonymous can be invaluable when it comes to people actually finding what they’re searching for and makes it far easier to manage the otherwise unwieldy mess that tags can so easily degenerate into.
