Tagging People and Objects for Pleasure

Tokyo, 2008

With the means to identify people and objects around you - with or without their knowledge, a framework to discover, access and extrapolate that data, and a personally carried tool through which to do all of this on the fly and without ever pulling up a web page - how long before the practice of digitally tagging angels and devils kicks off?

When you're queuing for coffee and with a smile the server hands over your order and quietly refuses your money; or ditto with a scowl refuses to serve. For every culture: a heroine or hero; a scapegoat.

Which site will be the most popular for tagging errant drivers - with videos to match?
