Rhizome / Rhizome Tags

• Example of artist submitted tags
• "active" tags
• if a tag becomes popular, rhizome may choose to make if official

Example: runme.org, a software art repository

• runme doesn't offer the possibility to view the history of tags, but we can use the [wayback machine] to do this.
