Thanks.

    But currently I can't put one post into two personal tag archives at once.

Although it might not be what you'd prefer, you can now add two personal tags to a post.

The archives idea is one that we are going to have to revisit. It does seem like there is a desire for it. However we have yet to come up with a functionality that isn't overly complex. If you have any ideas how you might like an archiving function to work, definitely share with us.

    Ideally: hubski has infinite recall and a google-esque search engine, but practically only the first one is very important.

forwardslash was charged this week with investigating solutions to this problem. Hubski has two problems in this regard: 1) we store data in flat files rather than in a proper (relational) database, 2) the Hubski app keeps accessible posts in memory, and does not serve up the whole of a directory in a efficient manner.

Personally, I feel that this is one of the most glaring shortcomings of Hubski, and its one that I want to fix. It is holding us back in more ways than one.
