Frustration with tags

[edg]

Okay, so I'm grooving on LJ's new tags feature. But there's one thing I'm missing.

You can see entries with a certain tag by going to http://www.livejournal.com/users/[user]/tag/[tag].

You can see entries with multiple certain tags by going to http://www.livejournal.com/users/[user]/tag/[tag1],[tag2].

The latter will give you all entries that have either [tag1] or [tag2]. What's missing is that I can't find a way to get all entries that have both [tag1] and [tag2].

http://www.livejournal.com/users/[user]/tag/[tag1]&[tag2] doesn't seem to work; neither does http://www.livejournal.com/users/[user]/tag/[tag1]+[tag2].

Any thoughts from the LJ-geeks out there? Not having the ability to AND-filter seriously hampers the utility of the tagging feature.

EDIT: I went ahead and submitted a support request on this topic, if any of you are interested.

Also helpful would be a page that lists all of another user's tags. And then I could select the ones that I want to see...

[edg.livejournal.com]

Quite true. Also something that lets me see previous tags when I'm composing an entry, so that I don't have to sit there thinking "is it bitching or bitchy?".

I found that if you use 'edit tags' after you've posted the entry, it gives you a list of all your previous tags to choose from.

Why you cannot do that right off, I do not know.

The tag function really seems to be kind of incomplete and not so well thought-out, doesn't it?

It really does seem incomplete. It's a good freshman effort, but it needs a lot of work - or else vastly better documentation - to be complete.

Hi! (You should identify yourself!)

(I like how the ASCII ♥ didn't come through in the post itself. ;)

[bestspecialgirl.livejournal.com]

The userpic doesn't give it away? ;)

[edg.livejournal.com]

Not really. ;)

Well, now I know that. ;)
