i was just reminded of an idea for a tag-based filing system. in this
context, i would imagine a file server that took, say:
crypto/
djb/
salsafamily.pdf
math/
djb/
grumpy.pdf
and turned it into:
crypto/
djb/
salsafamily.pdf
salsafamily.pdf
math/
djb/
grumpy.pdf
grumpy.pdf
djb/
crypto/
salsafamily.pdf
math/
grumpy.pdf
salsafamily.pdf
grumpy.pdf
just to throw it out there.
