I've recently been having a problem with the Firefox sidebar: it'll only work for adding bookmarks of Simpy pages. I know this is a browser-side issue, but I...
Hello, I haven't seen this problem. I just looked at Firefox preferences (Edit -> Preferences), and didn't see anything that would prevent you from ...

As far as the Del.icio.us interface, if you go to del.icio.us now and change the view as (below your tags) from list to cloud, that is what I am refering to....
Hello, In the last release I made some changes to the way link and note tags are handled, and one perceptive Simpy user noticed the changes and described them...

Hi everyone, ... Not that I'm able to justify my opinion on this very cleverly, but I find the second option more "natural". That a search for "full time" ...

Hello, Thanks for the feedback, Benjamin. That's two people for non-exact matching (same as before), and nobody wrote in voting for the other camp yet. I...

I vote for flickr-style tags -- it pretty much strips out any whitespace or punctuation and downcases everything and makes it one tag. So Full Time = full-time...
I think that "information retrieval" should be listed as one tag. Since Simpy allows for multi-word keywords, I would expect that a multi-word keyword would...
This idea is certainly attractive. It could automatically simplify extremely similar tags. Maybe I have a tag "foo bar" but then saved another link under...
Otis, any thoughts on setting up keyword synonyms? Let's say I've bookmarked fifty links as "foo," but I then realize I'd like to look them up as "bar." I...
Hi all, ... I think this is quite counterproductive to the whole "multi-word tags" concept. If I use more than one word as a tag, I do this with the special ...

Otis, I've got a bookmark whose tags refuse to change. I've bookmarked the NY Public Library and it has two tags: "new" and "york." NYPL, Digital Library New...

Thanks. That is what I thought, too. I need to treat multi-word tags with respect! :) I'll fix that, it's a 1-line fix. Otis...

Hi Larry, There are several ways I could add synonyms to Simpy, although I'm still not sure if that would help people. I could, for instance, display a "see...

Interestingly enough, I did try to enter "new york," hoping that perhaps it would be enough to save a multi word tag as a single tag. The trailing comma would...
One-to-many mappings are not that important to me - it comes up once in a blue moon. I think that simplicity is its own virtue. My synonym idea is more of a...
Yeah, I had tried "new york," before replying, too, hoping I was smart enough to implement that, but it turned out I had not implemented it. Now, however, you...
