Taggle

I love all the analysis going on about the tags in flickr and del.icio.us. Here's one article that's particularly interesting, about "folksonomies."

I wonder . . . if more and more services in 2005 add user-generated tagging, will "federated tagging" be far behind? And if someone were to index all the tags from these various sites.... would the result be Taggle? Imagine: a service where you type in a keyword, and you get back all the hits that have that word as a tag. If Flickr, del.icio.us, and umpteen other sites cooperated, then an uber-tag-search service might just work . . .
