Slashdot adds user tagging

Nice!  Slashdot.org has added user tagging as a beta feature.

Here’s an example search for RSS on the Microsoft Gadgets Gallery:

I think we should definitely think about user tagging for Channel 9 videos.  We’ve been heads down though as a team working on another new thing that should see the light of day very soon. 

Robert’s been alluding to it a bit on his blog.  Can’t wait to talk more. :-)
