The usage of the word "tag" in the sense of keyword metadata [and the "tag" in "hashtag"], came from del.icio.us

Someone from audience asking — couldn't the data between the search-providers be shared, to try to prevent centralization?

@reiver I think you could, but you'd need to have data processing agreements in place for the sharing of that data.

@reiver ⊼ (Charles) :batman:

. @julian asked what I was also thinking — you could create a community specific search-provider server.

(Ex: just for science community, or toy photography community, etc.)
