# Leaftag — Tags for the Filesystem
Leaftag was an experiment I worked on with my friend (and Beanbag co-founder) David Trowbridge.
This was an [[SQLite]]-based database, command line tools, library, and bindings for letting users tag files on a filesystem with one or more tags. You could look up files by tag, and use this to better organize your files.
The modules we provided were:
* `libleaftag`
* `libleaftag-gtk`
* `leaftag-gnome`
* `leaftag-gtk-sharp`
* `leaftag-python`
* `tagutils`
We got an article in the August 2006 issue of Linux Magazine, which was fun.
