del.icio.us Metadata Tags 

Interesting new tagging features at del.icio.us:

  • You can use a tag like for:joshua to bring a tagged item to someone’s attention.
  • ‘System tags’ such as system:filetype:mp3 are automatically added to bookmarked items that end in certain extensions.

The latter features allows you to assemble RSS-with-enclosures podcast feeds.
