Tagging on Amazon?

Also of interest: podcast id3 tagging: now with standards!

Another day, another cool way to tag stuff on the internet.

I was alerted by listener Alex that it is possible to tag content on Amazon with whatever you want. In this case, he has tagged the following albums with ‘inoveryourhead’. This could help people find albums on Amazon simply by looking for that tag. Pretty useful feature.

The weird downside in this case is you can’t view it outside the US for some reason. I get an error message when I click that link. I can’t justify that or explain it away (it is in beta) - but please give it a shot if you feel like it, and add to the list. The easier it becomes for people to find music, the cooler it becomes!

Pssssst, are you new here? You might want to pick up my RSS feed, it'll let you know when I put up new stuff. Thanks!
