I guess you'd appreciate my tip on using del.icio.us that I posted right here:

I'm sure I didn't originate the concept, but at least thus far I will claim credit for coining the term/phrase in this context. Glad you like it.

I really like "tag drafting" as a way to describe how people will increasingly use sites like del.icio.us. It's all about discovery and creating a unique and specific method of finding the gems as they flow by you.

In some ways, social networking is built on the idea of author drafting. In a large social network the information coming out of the community is huge and broad. By marking members as friends, you can filter the noise of the network into a trickle that relates only to the content produced by friends.
