Sharing tags?
I'd like Sandy to be able to deal with certain tags from trusted friends. Let me explain what prompted this.
I could send a message to Sandy that says, "Remember Eggs @shopping @groceries" and then Twitter Sandy "d s l @groceries" and Sandy would send me all of my grocery shopping list.
Here's what I would also like. If my wife has sent Sandy things for @groceries, I'd like Sandy to say, "Here are items tagged @groceries from your contacts as well." Of course, there would need to be ways of configuring who your trusted contacts are and what tags they should have access to, but I think this could be a really powerful way for families and partners to collaborate and share information.

Inappropriate?This is a good idea, Jamie. In my case, it works the other way around. I would like for my girlfriend to be able to ask my Sandy for my shopping list anytime. Currently, Sandy sends my shopping list to me and my gfriend weekly, however if my gfriend decides to go shopping before that time she still needs to ask me for list of things I need from the store. Any solution to that?

Inappropriate?In my vision of this, it would be a mutual thing. So, if my wife is out shopping, she could query Sandy like this. "d s l @shopping" and get all of our shopping things and I could do the same. Perhaps linking a tag to a person would be good? So, in my Sandy settings, I could have a tag @wife and then when I do a query, I could do it like this "d s l @shopping @wife" and get all of both of our items tagged with @shopping.
If you're from a programming background this would work similar to the keypath stuff in many programming scenarios such as Ruby on Rails and Cocoa on Mac OS X. Basically, this would be requesting @wife.@shopping, which means to get the person tagged @wife and get their @shopping items.
This could prove to be a very powerful feature for many people, and it would be one that would be there if you need it but not in the way if you don't, which are always the best kinds of features. :D

this is one of the best points

Inappropriate?Some guys would probably have tags like @girlfriend1, @girlfriend2, @girlfriend3,..... ;D
I’m trying to be funny

Inappropriate?I got an error message on Sandy and they appear to be using Ruby on Rails because the error message referenced ActiveRecord:: So, my example above would be quite right. IIRC it would be a hasAndBelongsToMany: relationship. :D
I’m happy.

Inappropriate?I got the same error message earlier today when I was posting here but keep in mind that GetSatisafaction page is not connected with Sandy. It's just a place for discussions, problem solving, etc. :)
