Eyecandy: files in a journal-like interface showing a set of tags derived from their directory structures on a traditional desktop

C.Scott demonstrated a set of new proposed Journal features based on experiments with unordered paths for files. Screencasts, slides, and lots more are available from the new Journal, reloaded page. The code is split across the journal2 and pinot repositories. Pinot is a desktop search engine and indexer that supports the rest of the "Journal, reloaded" project.

A screencast of the demo is available in four parts: part 1 (mockup), part 2 (working demo), part 3 (embedding), and part 4 (exporting feeds). Each section is about 5 minutes long. Recordings and audio links from the full talk are also available. Brian Jordan notes that this was recorded with stereo effects for in-ear microphones: ogg recording (127 MB), mp3 (171 MB).
