🔗 Filesystems should drop the desktop metaphor and enable tags
In my opinion, we need to get rid of the desktop metaphor. The powerful computer sitting on my desk currently does not offer as advanced interface possibilities than any web page on the Internet. What a shame.
The basic idea should be that the representation of information is only defined by the context of the retrieval process and not the context or a location when storing it.
Tagging in combination with advanced retrieval methods such as TagTrees is one example of many. Fast desktop search with high usability is another one. Provide and use as many retrieval options as possible. The journey has just begun. In my opinion, we are still in the stone-age of IT. There is more to come.
