Well, yeah, us geeky types use tags at technorati and geeky places like that. But look at what I saw today when I was checking out the new Alejandro Escovedo album at amazon.com:

amazon's new tag interface

The concept of tagging content for meaning takes a whole new leap when Amazon starts doing it. My, my, change is blowing in the wind.

Stumble it!
