Hi Joshua,

It would be graeat if geowankers simply tagged messages for later 
aggrgation and mining.

A while back Jo Walsh hacked a very cool potentially useful program fdor 
this list , called grouphug that  aggregates e-mails that include a tag  
in the subject line of an e-mail message. see:

 http://map.wirelesslondon.info/docs/ghug.html 
<http://map.wirelesslondon.info/docs/ghug.html>

Here's howJo described it at the time:

"it is an email aggregator / rss reader / publish'n'subscribe thing. It 
works as a kind of email bot, that you cc or forward interesting mail 
to. in the 'Subject:' line you add 'tags', keywords abotu the content.

the bot collects all the urls and mail addresses from the email you send 
it, and generates auto-summaries and rss feeds for each topic. you can 
subscribe to individual tags and people, and get all the relevant 
conversations in a digest email or a web inbox.  
...
it's my thinking that it will develop some 'emergent order' but that 
really depends on the depth of people using it. there is a lot more 
foafy,recommendation-engine sort of stuff it could do. i am sure lots of 
little things don't work. "

Meanwhile,  nearly since the beginning of geowankers, and del.icio.us 
I've been aggregating geowanker related tagged content

recently moved to: http://del.icio.us/subscriptions/starhill_blend

Here are the current tags: updated several hundred times a day - maybe 
you have more accurate posting data, I  don't really keep track:
