Ah, ok. :) Then we're in agreement that keywords/tags should be auto-created. We aren't in agreement that Epiphany should have topics. :) The problem I have is that no structure can be inferred from tags. Tags can be anything at all, important or unimportant. Topics are those particular things that are important about the object and that the user wants to be presented with to find an object again. A more detailed blurb on topics is on my page describing the hierarchical bookmark menu. What interface would you propose instead if we just had tags/keywords? Note that I don't like the term "keywords" to replace "tags" as they need not be "key" at all. In real life we use the term "tag" to refer to all sorts of labels for objects (prices, warnings, sizes, etc). Perhaps "labels" would be a better term? But not keen on "keywords".
