Dear Twitter,

I use your ser­vice for pretty spe­cific things, usu­ally remem­ber­ing quotes I’ve heard when I’m at a con­fer­ence. I real­ize this isn’t why you cre­ated your ser­vice, but unin­tended con­se­quences and all. So for me, it would be really great if you could let me tag my twits. I know that sounds kind of insane and gran­u­lar, and the folks that don’t like Twit­ter will think that’s just crazy talk, but it would allow me to do things like aggre­gate the great Anil Dash quotes I heard at this week’s Microsoft Social Com­put­ing Sym­po­sium (most of which I didn’t even get recorded). ‘Cause believe me, the guy is just bril­liant and he rat­tles them off one after the other, on the backchan­nel and every­where else. And maybe then I could cre­ate my own lit­tle ran­dom Dash quote gen­er­a­tor or something.

So unless I’m already miss­ing a way I might oth­er­wise do this, if you could just imple­ment one more way for me to cat­e­go­rize my lifestream, that would be really great.

Thanks. Your pal,
Jenny
