Bang on. The thought was that we'd have a small number of categories to
start with, see what other keywords ppl add, and evolve. That way if we
*do* get a lot of ones with a wierd keyword, we can choose whether to
aggregate.
I'm absolutely assuming that keywords are shared btw. Once one person
uses a new keyword, it's on the list of ones to pick from.

If we're hosted somewhere with enough bandwidth to support it (and the
contributions from evolters will make sure we are... no members, no
money, but no bandwidth need), is this a problem?
Hosting photos was one of the big things that people misused meo for
(me included for a while).
