I’ve just written a new Blog post “Tags, Structured or Free Form, Hierarchical or Flat” at http://blog.surfulater.com/2016/02/24/tags-structured-or-free-form-hierarchical-or-flat/ which may be of interest to some. I’d be most interested in any comments, which you can post on the blog or here if you prefer.
If you haven’t tried Clibu in recent times a lot has changed and development continues apace. Later in March we should have a release you can install and run completely on your own PC or Server. You can read a bit about that at: http://blog.surfulater.com/2016/02/11/clibu-v1-30-09-a-major-new-release/
The Clibu Website http://www.clibu.com has been updated and now includes some screen shots, with more to come.

You lovely bunny, Neville! At last, a Surfulater for the desktop that’s right up to date and foreign-language capable! Big kisses on both cheeks! I am on fire with impatience!
And I enjoyed the blog post, as well. The one thing you don’t discuss is autotagging (along the lines of what DEVONthink does, although that’s more of a concordance function). NoteSuite for iOS used to do it too - rather well, as a matter of fact - but first they removed that functionality and now it’s dead. But I entirely agree with your other remarks about structured and freeform tagging.
Cheers,
Bill

Oh, and I see you do already have auto-suggest, which goes a long way towards autotagging - may even be better. Sorry! I haven’t taken a close look at Clibu since it went fully online.

@MadaboutDana Thanks for the nice words. I look forward to your feedback and critical comments.
The current autosuggest works on tags you’ve already created, not by parsing the content and suggesting words. That said it streamlines the process of adding tags considerably.
The later is an area I plan to look at in the future, as indicated in the blog post.

The Website Said:
“And in the future you will be able to: Run Clibu on your own PC/Server along with its database when data privacy is a must. With optional access, sharing and collaboration from anywhere.”
.....................................................................................................
This - Neville, is fabulous. I am distinctly uncomfortable with so much data in the hands of Evernote and am working to eliminate EVN from digital life.
Evernote’s investors will invariably push for ever more privacy incursions to better monetize people’s digital predilections. (Of course, this is true for all the social nets.)
Every item a person adds to FB or Evernote or LinkedIn is parsed into pieces of a digital composite of your psyche. And these companies will not be able to resist using that data for *more* than tailored ad delivery. In other words, people are providing their own materials - blithely - to the future “Thought Police”.
I hope your aspirations in possessing such data on your Servers will never tempt you to unduly monetize your captive users.
If your intent is never to go the Zuckerberg route, I would feature this fact topmost in your primary marketing messaging.
Best of luck in your Project.
