Just added a new feature to Tagz yesterday (Subscriptions). Subscriptions allows all registered users to subscribe to a set of tags. Internally we ‘AND’ all the tags for every subscription and ‘OR’ the results of every subscription. Additionally, we also support stemming (like we do on every other feed). I see that a couple of users have already started using it. I just wish more people start posting more links (people tend to keep posts private) and commenting more often.

We silently launched tagz on September 1st. I posted about it on proggit last afternoon. The response has been pretty positive. Had some trouble initially. I did consider launching a 2nd ec2 instance at one point of time, but then the load reduced. Its relatively fast to launch another instance, change some settings and setup round robin dns scheduling. I’ve also got a whole lot of feature requests to implement.
