I like the microblogging tagging as I have been wanting to add a small set of tags to my 4,500+ favorites I have starred in Twitter over the last 18 months or more I have used the service. Tags are one easy option, if I can get nice mobile access as the food and travel/city relevant info does me more use from a mobile.
