I missed this in the 0.8 new features post. You can now tag other people's stuff. This is a big change in Vox.
Featuring the canonical Comet test posting subject-cat pictures! In this case, the three kittens sleeping cutely on a chair.
Is collections a useful feature? The jury is still out...
Interesting. So what happens when a user clicks on it? Only one way to find out....
Hmm.. that was somewhat underwhelming. I thik it would be cooler if the collections icon were made up of miniaturized pictures of the things in the collection-or that inserting a collection into a blog entry would insert the actual assets themselves. Also, you don't seem to be able to tag, or otherwise explicate a collection like you can a photo or music asset. Like explaining why you've collected these things together.
Well, wait. I just moused over the collection icon and got an edit glyph, which allowed me to rate and tag my collection, but not add a description. Then I accidentally deleted it, but managed to undo it back to life, which is epic. My problem is that I click in the text entry box below what I've written, and expect the caret to go the end of what I've already written, which is what would happen in Word or a text editor. In Comet, though, nothing hapens. So that's a bug.
Such utter giznank. Why doesn't Comet support html in postings?
See how this works:

It's really great that Comet supports tagging. It's a huge lack in Typepad currently. Right now, though, the implementation is lacking, IMHO.
The most basic problem (and many other people have pointed this out) is that tags right now are only useful for organizing stuff within one asset category in one blog. So, I can use a tag to find stuff in my own blog entries, or my own albums, or books-but not all stuff with a tag. Obviously I would like to be able to do that.
If I'm looking at someone else's site, I can use tags to find stuff, but again, only within one category.
The biggest need, though, is to be able to connect my tagbase with the tagcloud of the Comet community at large. If I tag something "v-mars" I want to be able to see if anyone else has blogged (or commented, or whatever) with that tag.
While I'm on the subject of tagging. I think tagging should apply to everything in Comet: blog entries, media assets, collections, profiles, links (if they start getting treated as assets, which I think was a feature request) everything. Even comments. With comments, I think inheriting the tags of the post the comment is on would be a good start, but you should also be able to add tags (or remove, possibly... interesting issues of ownership there) to your comments.
Once you connect the tagbases of all the users, you can then create a tagcloud like you see on flickr or del.icio.us. But maybe do something more interesting with it. Differentiate it, so Comet doesn't start to feel like "flickr for blogging" (Technorati has that space.) Show the most popular tags, but also show the most unique, the new emerging ones, ones that are becoming passe, stuff like that.

in mp3 form, using my upload as photo hack. First is the new song from David Gilmour, returning to his Pink Floyd roots. Next is the new single from Yeah Yeah Yeahs, a bit more mellow than their previous album, but not as poppy as "Maps." Finally, southern rockers the Drive-By Truckers return with Feb. 14, Patterson Hood's archetypal break-up song.

I uploaded an "executable" really just a renamed Powerpoint file.
So here are some of my favorite 2005 indie rock albums. Let's see if they all end up in the post once I submit it. So here we go. Really hard to see where the caret is.
