  1. TagsOS Slide -
  2. TagsOS is a desktop based operting system that relies on a file system governed by tags
  3. rather than traditional folders.
  4.  
  5. At TagsOS, we believe that the current method of storing and searching for files is
  6. almost redundant because it's based on a real world concept of storing file that could
  7. be made more efficient
  8.  
  9. Interface Slide 1 -
  10. This is the interface, it looks fairly similar to any OS interface you've seen before,
  11. and this is because our main concern isn't to take you away from what you know and love
  12.  
  13. At the top left of the desktop you'll see a search area where you can readily search for
  14. a desired file through the use of tags
  15.  
  16. Next to the search area are the 3 buttons that you can use to get to anything on the
  17. computer, the first will be used as a programs centre, where you can find any programs
  18. installed on the system
  19.  
  20. The 2nd will be used for getting to files and folders, because this might be a faster
  21. method for those of you who know exactly where things are and would rather use that
  22. from time to time
  23.  
  24. The 3rd button will be use for any social networking you want to do, there will be access
  25. to Facebook and Twitter and also access to emails.
  26.  
  27. Interface Slide 2 -
  28. Here is a sample of the search window, all tags down the left side, an address bar at the
  29. top so you know where the file is, a tags helper, which will present you with similar or
  30. relevant tags to what you have searched currently
  31.  
  32. Underneath this will be all the files which contain the relevant tags and on the right is
  33. a search bar and all the information regarding the currently highlighted file
  34.  
  35. Interface Slide 3 -
  36. Here is just a preview of an example search
  37.  
  38. Features Slide 1 -
  39. Tagging files, what this system is focused around, users will be able to add semantic tags
  40. to any file on the system
  41.  
  42. Tag hierarchy, relating to those tags which can fall into a hierarchy, such as soccer and
  43. tennis falling under sports and so on
  44.  
  45. Users will also be able to search and sort all their files based on the tags associated with
  46. every file
  47.  
  48. Sometimes when you open the a search window, it's easier to look at tags that you use often
  49. so that you never have to look too far for a tag which is your main focus, this is where
  50. tag weighting comes into play giving tags with more usage a higher score so they become
  51. more relevant in searches
  52.  
  53. Features Slide 2 -
  54. Automated tagging is useful for files that you forget to add tags to, these tags can vary from
  55. the website it came from, if it was from social media, it might be related to the person you
  56. got it from or author and so on
  57.  
  58. The system will also manage untagged files in an area where users can later go and add tags
  59. if they wish to
  60.  
  61. Purpose Slide -
  62. The purpose for TagsOS is so that files can be stored in a logical way, a way that makes
  63. sense to the user so they can place a single file in multiple locations under many tags
  64.  
  65. TagsOS will be easier for the users to find files based on properties of that file, which
  66. will come more naturally than a file location
  67.  
  68. Why Slide -
  69. Why use TagsOS? Well, simple enough, because it's an easier and more efficient file system
  70. to use
  71.  
  72. Because it prevents a user from losing a file because of forgetting where it was placed
  73.  
  74. And it also makes it easier for users to categorise files that aren't necessarily easy
  75. to group in an existing file system
  76.  
  77. Innovation Slide -
  78. TagsOS is innovative because there are no current mainstream implementations of such an
  79. operating system that take advantage of this file system
  80.  
  81. And it's a different approach to the normal searching and sorting of files
  82.  
  83. Cost Slide -
  84. TagsOS will be free and open source, and also open for community development
  85.  
  86. This is because the more people who work together on this, the better it will be
  87.  
  88. However, that being said, we encourage some sort of donations if you're willing
  89. to support our ideas
