I'd definitely like to see more info about entries in the palette. It
would be great to have the preview and at least the first part of the
description there.

I also remembered something else, more of the description could appear
as a tooltip.

 I like the tags icon. It should be used throughout to indicate tags
 (currently it's missing in the menu palette showing tags).

 For selecting tags, instead of the vertical list which wastes screen
 real estate due to different tag lengths, why not lay them out
 horizontally wrapped (using the same white rounded rects as in the
 menu), using the whole width of the screen? This would work either in
 a hover palette, or a panel at the bottom of the screen.

Hi, just saw the mockup, where beneath each journal entry it shows the
tags it has. Have you thought about showing the first line of the
entry description in there? Perhaps it is more rich in information
than tags, to have the first line of the description in there, and
would extra incentive for the user to describe his journal entries.

Yes, though there needs to be a search pane like in Christian's  
mockups. And potentially we need to deal with lots of tags, so using  
more of the screen plus scroll bars seems to be necessary.

I like the tags icon. It should be used throughout to indicate tags  
(currently it's missing in the menu palette showing tags).

For selecting tags, instead of the vertical list which wastes screen  
real estate due to different tag lengths, why not lay them out  
horizontally wrapped (using the same white rounded rects as in the  
menu), using the whole width of the screen? This would work either in
