Heh, I agree. This is just one of the things I mentioned
2(!) years ago
here:

It is amazing, but most of the pros/cons in that post still
hold! Sad.

I'll check Ma.gnolia, but del.icio.us doesn't support
multi-word tags,
so how would Flock get around that?
Coincidentally, I posted something last night that's
somewhat related:
http://blog.simpy.com/blojsom/blog/news/2
007/10/16/Smarky-on-Flock.html
Unfortunately, the screenshot doesn't show off multi-word
tags converted
into "folders", but the Smarky add-on handles
Simpy's multi-word tags
nicely and, as you can see, runs in Flock just fine!
I wish Flock would add support for Simpy.
If you look at the bottom of the recent Social Bookmarking
Faceoff
Reloaded post, you will see that, according to ReadWriteWeb
guys, Simpy
is ahead of Ma.gnolia when it comes to numbers:
