• Supports both free text search (like Beagle/Google) as well as structured searches using RDF Query.
• Responds in real time to filesystem changes, automaticaly keeping its metadata database up to date.
• Extracts file contents as plain text and indexes them.
• Can provide thumbnailing on the fly if a thumbnail does not currently exist.
• Uses multilingual word stemmers to help find more relevant results. For example a search for motorbikes (plural) will also return results relevant to motorbike (singular).

  Tagging

  Tags are one-word labels that you can assign to any file to help you categorize and remember them.
• You can assign as many tags to a file as you like and rename or delete the tags later.

Screenshot tour

Here’s the basic gui of Tracker built from svn. Note the blue bar with the arrow?

The blue bar opens up, revealing the tagging gui.

TagAndFacet is a Windows application that helps users to manage the flow of information they are facing every day.Unlike search engines, Tag And Facet lets you, the user, take the initiative to associate your keywords or tags to any piece of information you would like.  You can use your own vocabulary, your own language to qualify a document.  Tag And Facet is UTF8 compatible so any character set scan be used to tag documents.  You can use as many keywords as you wish.  There is no limitation in the number of keywords used even in the Beta version.

To help people see the potential of a GNOME desktop using Tracker I have been working on two projects for the past little while. Both of these are components of my larger vision of a metadata rich GNOME desktop. These initial attempts just focus on making tagging [1] a more consistent experience for all GNOME apps. Consider the examples and screenshots (for a file called nice) below;

• Freedesktop emblem spec
  Allows desktop file managers and indexers to present a list of predefined emblems and tags to the user, and allows these predefined emblems/tags to be installed by third party developers in a consistent manner.
• Tracker Nautilus Integration
  Nautilus using tracker for storage of all tags and emblems.
• libtracker-gtk
  A bunch of gtk widgets that application authors can use to add tracker functionality to their application.
