we have liftoff

So taghop has now launched to the public - as a community beta.

It's as much an experiment as it is a service... how far can we take the concept of tags and community? It's clear that we have a problem finding out what is going on around the web and we have a tendancy to use the main web sites as sources for our information, missing out on all the other stuff that is going on. As we know the buzz starts off with just a few people knowing and then gradually grows through viral networking... let's see if taghop can use this principle.

I'd love to hear feedback on taghop and what you think it can do for you. Tags aren't supposed to be anything specific - they morph over time according to the latest buzz relating to that tag and this is the difference in the keyword searches on a search engine, where you get a myriad of content results and a tag on taghop.

All the best,
