Tag2find- tag and Search Local Directories and files
Tag2find is a memory-resident program that can apply tags to all of your local files. It can be optionally accessed from the right click context menu, a search box within the taskbar or the IE toolbar, or a floating searchbar (tagbar) that can be launched from the tray menu and moved around the desktop. Currently Tag2find supports NTFS file systems only, and is free for personal use.
"Directories & folders", states the Tag2find website, "were the structure of the 20th century. Now it’s time for something new" … that something new being tagging, of course. And they have a point: one reason why tagging is such a great idea is that you can apply multiple tags to any individual file in order to categorize it, rather than being confined to a single location within a folder structure. You can then use these tags to find the relevant files that you might be looking for when you need them.

Here’s a quick example: say you have 2 word documents "text1.doc" and "text2.doc", both of which are relevant to the same client (say ’client A’), except they pertain to 2 different projects (say "opti" for the first one and "SEO" for the second). Thus "text1.doc" might be tagged "document, client A, opti", and "text2.doc" tagged "document, client A, SEO". Doing a search on "client A" in the Tag2find "tagbox" (or clicking on clientA in a tag cloud) will display both files in the Tag2find browser, and so on.
