Using gmail I always missed a decent tagging feature. The labels provided are fine to mark general categories, e.g. @home, @work or @@waiting_for

If you are not working on more then a dozen projects you might use labels as well to sort your mails into projects. But when it comes to more granular tagging, labels definitely are no longer a solution.  read more »

Right now I have a heaps of tags in del.icio.us where this is only 1 item associated with the tag.

Do people actually try to minimise this? if so, do you have your own tagging standards? or do you just leave them alone and not worry about it?

I am looking for a method to tag portions of text in a MS word document.

I am a law student, and I do a copicious amount of research and note taking. While I have a format to most of my notes and outlines, it would be a boon if I could tag sections of notes within the document. Thus I could later search for not only a keyword but a topic. This would help ID aspects of the topic that are not best expressed in the the major point heading.

If an example helps please see my post at macworld forums: http://forums.macworld.com/thread/98042?tstart=0  read more »

Wow… trust me, just stop what you are doing, download the Leap Beta and spend 15 minutes playing around. Not sure what the performance will be on older machines, but it works great on the MBP 2.2GHz with 2GB of RAM. With apps like this, Leopard’s new Finder seems less necessary than it did before.

Tagging, a better Get Info that shows all metadata, Spotlight integration, great options in the right-click menu, etc….

Enjoy!
