So… I want to tag my journal. You know, organize posts by topic. The problem is, I can’t decide whether to do it via LJ’s tags facility or its memories feature. Anyone have any opinions?

Tags seem a bit easier to use, but tags will only show the last hundred posts for a given topic, which seems unnecessarily limiting. early on, before LJ implemented the tags facility, I did some tagging using the memories feature, and that seems to work okay, for the most part.

So I can’t decide. Do you use either? Both? Neither? Vote, and put any additional info in comments. Thanks!

I don't know what a Kinsey Scale is.

It's an attempt to express degrees of sexual orientation where 0 indicates exclusive heterosexuality and 6 exclusive homosexuality. The strict application of the scale refers only to sexual history, which excludes a personal opinion about one's self. Thus, if you are what is now commonly referred to as "bi-curious" but have only had sexual encounters with members of the opposite sex, you're a 0. A more crass example would be to say that a completely closeted homosexual would still rank a 0, even if they know they'd rather be a 6.

Most people hang the strict sense of this and use the scale to express their preferred status.

It's always possible that LJ will extend the limit on tags.

And I have zero clue where you are in the Kinsey Scale sense.
