In these days there has been much fuzzing about the new browsing with files organizing themselves with the help of meta data. Maybe you ask yourself "What have this to do with the spatial browsing in gnome and how can it improve the browsing?". That's what I did. As I see it, the gnome people have introduced the spatial browsing so we are used to it when this new browsing is coming to town. This is very intelligent move of the gnome people and will help us adopt faster to this. This is when the spatial browsing is really making sense. I hope you see this when you've read this article.

A little OT, but I'm sure some of you will find this info useful. If you want to get automatic meta data info into your mp3 files (no entering it, no guessing by file name) try MusicBrainz Tagger (sorry Windows only, they have an OSX version too) http://www.musicbrainz.org/tagger/download.html. It creates an audio siginute (for mp3, ogg, acc files) and then comparess it with its database.
Out of my 550 mp3s I've ripped and acumulated over the years, it correctly indentified like 520 of them, the other 30 were like entriess that had a low similarity yield, or were close to two diffrent songs. It's super useful.
