Thanks to FUSE it’s unbelievably easy to implement new and awesome filesystems for Linux, such as for example MetaweblogFS, which allows me to write this post using cat > $title && touch $title (hopefully).

Ok, so the touch part did not work, but at least it posted a draft. Tags were missing, anyway. Looks like I won’t be a user of this particular filesystem in the future, but it was fun to try.

This seems like great fun, SSHfs looks even remotely useful and maybe TagsFS, which presents your mp3 and ogg files in a virtual tree based on the tags of the files might even solve my music-library woes.

Be prepared for xml-flatfileFS, implemented in OCaml!
