    I was just searching for a site that I was pretty sure I'd tagged, a photography site. But I searched for "photo" and "image" and it didn't come up. Finally I found it and discovered I'd tagged it with "photos" and "images".

    It'd be really nice if diigo could smartly handle plurals in tags. Looking at my tag list I've already got lots of duplicate tags book/books, photo/photos, snippet/snippets.

    I do my best to avoid them, but it often depends on the context of the page. A directory of code snippets is much more likely to get tagged "snippets", whereas if i find a page with a single cool snippet its much more likely to get tagged "snippet". Same goes for everything else.

    I don't mind, too much, having the separate tags, though it does make it hard to navigate by tag cloud, etc.. but it'd be nice if at least the search was able to handle them and show both.

    We will evaluate this feature. Thanks.
    BTW, When you filter bookmarks by tags, the auto suggestion feature in my bookmark page can help you choose the right tags.
