Tag. It's your new home-page!
I took a look yesterday at the "home-page" Technorati have created for the Live 8 campaign. It immediately struck me that they could basically create a "home-page" for any topic by hiding the Tag-request behind a pretty page that aggregates Google ads, links from delicious, technorati blog links and photos from Flickr into a single page.
In fact it should be pretty easy to whip up a tool that - given a particular tag - creates just any "home-page" dynamically for you. And, as is perhaps the case with the Live 8 page, the "home-page" could then be configured to appear at a certain time and disappear again, once the event has moved out of public interest.

This is kind of how Swik works, we allow aggregation of feeds and info about tags and then when you create a page, hey presto we already have lots of info about it.
It's a bit manual atm, but I think this is definitely the way things are going with tagging.
