If anyone is interested in a more personal tagging service, there is Astral (http://astralapp.com/ http://astralapp.com/). Shame it isn't open source though.

- gatsbysong 12y agoI guess the point is, whether you want to tag everything yourself, most of the tags are really standardized anyways. Probably a standardized shared tagging system that allows some personal touch would be the best.
- adieu 12y agoYes, astral is a great tool. But our goal is different. We're trying to crowd source the tagging work so that most people don't have to tag repos any more. And the tagged data could be used by any Github related services or anyone who wants to study open source projects.
- syropian 12y agoAuthor of Astral here, it is currently open source (http://github.com/astralapp/astral http://github.com/astralapp/astral), but a bit of a mess since I'm trying to upgrade the stack and fix some bower dependencies. Hoping to get it tidied and ready for real contributions within the next month or so.
- joshdance 12y agoAnd this is why I love open source and HN.
- hfaran 12y agoOh, I guess maybe this open-sourced a little after launch? I looked around for the source when it was first launched and couldn't find it.
- syropian 12y agoYou're correct, the decision to open source it was quite recent. I'm excited to see where the dev community will take it once the repo is in good shape :]
