wow really? I never knew some people still used memories! (I also started LJ before tags were implemented, but I still love me tags dearly; I always found the memory tool rather wonky). Well, now I'll know where to find links to your fics, that's great :D
I end up caving eventually - it's happened with pretty much every social networking thingamajig, I'll be like "fuck Delicious" one minute and then there's a God-damned 300-some link rec list a week later - but I have some like 3,300+ entries at this point, so being a pithy butthole about tags is kind of a consolation prize in lieu of looking even remotely organized. ♥
3,300 is a very impressive number (I've got less than half of it, through 9 years of posting, damn)!! I understand not wanting to go back and tag those.
Hmm, I'm more likely from day one to be either "I LOVE IT" or "NEVER YOU HEAR ME NEVER?" and stick with it unless I'm really forced by social convention. Tags I jumped and did the retro-tagging very quickly when they started. Delicious I made an account quickly enough too (though I never was a power user). Recently I'm trying tumblr, and the only reason I started is because of the comicstore newsletter, you know? which meant I had to learn it a bit to post for it; but holy fucking shit, I HATE IT. I mean, I love the pics you can find on it, that's why I keep coming back, but I really hate the interface. It is an infinite loop of increasingly freezing my computer and urrrgh. The way you can search tags across the board is awesome though (if people don't use pithy tags, that is).
