I agree ... having both is definitely more confusing. That's why I think the ideal is to have single categories plus tags.
In my mind tags seems a bit like a no brainer. Tagging is quickly becoming *the* standard way to apply metadata and so I definitely think we should be working toward tag support. So, assuming we do tag support then the question becomes, should we also do multiple categories? I would say no, at least until a lot of people start complaining that they *really* want multiple categories as well as tags. -- Allen On Wed, 2005-09-28 at 11:23, Elias Torres wrote: > The problem is that tags *and* categories are confusing to people. > What should we do?
