Hi,

 My newfound interest in Web 2.0 has awoken another interest:  tagging.  I'm not entirely convinced that tagging can, or should, completely replace hierarchical organization, but it certainly has advantages over traditional methods of file organization.  At first I was less-than-impressed with tagging due, in part, to the fact that I mistakenly associated it with social networking (like <a href="http://digg.com/">Digg</a>), which I continue to have misgivings about.  I slowly began to experiment with tagging, and I eventually chose to use <a href="http://www.blinklist.com/">BlinkList</a> as a bookmark repository, primarily for their tagging capability (although I think I've really only scratched the surface of BlinkLists's capabilities...).  I've really enjoyed using BlinkList:  tagging is much more freeform than hierarchical organization and therefore simpler to work with (in my case, at least).  Don't get me wrong, I still feel the urge to organize things hierarchically, but that urge has faded significantly.  I'm still keeping an eye on <a href="http://beta.bookmarks.yahoo.com/">Yahoo's Beta Bookmarks</a>, which has excellent features, not the lest of which is both tagging and traditional organization, both working together seamlessly.  Anyway, on to the real subject of this post:  I began to realize that tagging would have great implications for filtering/searching files across a file system.  I searched for, but was unable to find a utility that would do such a thing.  In the course of my studies I discovered that Vista incorporates some tagging, but only for certain filetypes.  I've also read that a Mac OS incorporates tagging, but Im not sure to what extent.  Then I discovered <a href="http://www.tag2find.com/">Tag2Find</a>, and I've signed up for the 'Technical Preview" (but haven't been approved yet).  Apparently Tag2Find is the first tagging utilty for all file types on windows file systems.  I'm really excited about this utility, and I look forward to taking it for a test drive.  I knew that my fellow software geeks at DC would want in on the action too, thus my post.

I'll post impressions in the review section after I have a chance to play around with it for a few days (not sure when I'll be approved for testing, so the review might not be for a week or two)

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for an effective web-based calendar and todo site.  I've tried Yahoo's and Google's Calendar betas but I'm less than impressed with the integration of ToDos and Calendar items:  I'd like my ToDo (Tasks) displayed on my calendar, or at least the option to display all tasks due on day X on the same page that I view all events taking place on day x. 

I'm willing to reconsider the web-based option if necessary.  I think that I'd like the flexibility of a web-based service (free or paid, if not too expensive) but I'm open to suggestions about resident applications. 

I have a Palm, and am a bit interested in compatibility with my Palm, but I can live without it if necessary.

Thanks, and please point me to the pertinent threads if this has already been hashed out (I searched for online calendar and didn't get much byond Google's Beta)

(Added after-the-fact:  Discovered HipCal http://www.hipcal.com/ which looked very promising, but then found that they've been sold to Plaxo http://www.plaxo.com/ .  I don't care for Plaxo's Calendar/ToDo, but I get the sense that that's not what Plaxo has been designed for.  Sounds like they may incorporate some of HipCal's Calendar/ToTo features, but who knows when, if at all?  Anyway, HipCal is as close as I've some to satisfying my requirements)

(Added after-the-fact:  also discovered CalendarReview.com ( http://www.calendarreview.com/ ) which might help.  Who would have thought there was such a site?)

Thanks, and Happy New Year
