+is_taggable
+===============================================================================
+
+This plugin is almost entirely based on acts-as-taggable-on by Michael Bleigh +
+contributors.
+
+is_taggable supports the awesome contextual tagging of acts-as-taggable-on, but
+with a couple substantial changes to the underlying architecture.
+
+Architecture Differences
+===============================================================================
+
+We had a couple key issues with the underlying architecture in 
+acts-as-taggable-on which we felt deserved a forking into a new direction.
+There are two main architectural differences between is_taggable and
+acts-as-taggable-on:
+
+1) is_taggable does *not* use a normalized data model -- there is one table
+"taggings" and not two tables "taggings" and "tags". This means that tags are
+duplicated in the taggings table. The reason behind this was that we could not
+find a reason justifying the join that couldn't be easily overcome with unique
+indexing and grouped selects.
+
+2) (This is the big one) -- is_taggable skips validations and callbacks on the
+Tagging model when saving. This totally breaks the normal AR behavior and the
+behavior used by all other AR tagging plugins. The reason for this is that the
+taggings are updated with a multi-insert -- which also means this plugin can 
+only be used on databases which support multi-insert (MySQL, Postgres, Oracle,
+...). The reason we use a multi-insert is because we ran into massive problems
+with large numbers of writes on taggings. Take this scenario:
+
+I upload a photo and fill in my tags when I upload it. I want people to find it
+so I tag it with about 20 different keywords. In order to save the tags on my
+photo the original plugin would have to (at least):
+
+2) do 20 SELECTs on the taggings table for validates_uniqueness_of
+4) do some number (at most 20) of INSERTs on the tags table to save the tags
+3) do 20 INSERTs on the taggings table to save the taggings
+
+So best case 20 INSERTs, 20 SELECTs -- worst case 40 INSERTs, 20 SELECTs.
+
+Now get a few users adding lots of tags on things concurrently and you can see
+writes quickly becoming a problem, and as the number of tags I'm adding grows,
+the problem gets worse. Individual INSERTs are fast, but once you have
+concurrency you have lock waits and the the problem gets massively compounded.
+
+By using a multi-insert, a non-normalized table, and a "manual" validation (do
+all the validates_uniqueness_of checks at once) we can get it down to:
+
+2) do 1 SELECT to check for duplicated taggings
+3) do 1 multi-INSERT to INSERT all the taggings
+
+Furthermore, no matter how many tags your inserting, it's always 1 SELECT and 1
+INSERT.
+
+Another thing to consider is the impact of updating tags. In the original 
+plugin this was done as a loop causing multiple DELETEs followed by multiple
+INSERTs. We've taken this down to 1 DELETE followed by 1 multi-INSERT.
+
+Compatibility
+===============================================================================
+
+is_taggable requires that your underlying database support multi-INSERT
+statements (i.e. INSERT INTO taggings (tag) VALUES ('foo', 'bar', 'baz')). Most
+"major" databases do -- including MySQL, PostgreSQL and Oracle.
+
+It has only been tested with Rails 2.1+ and makes use of named_scope (introduced
+in Rails 2.1).
+
+Installation
+===============================================================================
+
+GemPlugin
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Rails 2.1+ introduces gem dependencies, to use them add this line to 
+environment.rb:
+  
+  config.gem "citrusbyte-is_taggable", :source => "http://gems.github.com", :lib => "is_taggable"
+  
+Then run "rake gems:install" to install the gem.
+
+Plugin
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+  script/plugin install git://github.com/citrusbyte/is_taggable.git
+  
+Gem
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+  gem install citrusbyte-is_taggable --source http://gems.github.com
+
+Post Installation
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+1. script/generate is_taggable_migration
+2. rake db/migrate
+
+Testing
+===============================================================================
+
+is_taggable uses RSpec for its test coverage, if you're using RSpec type:
+
+rake spec:plugins
+
+Examples (all stolen from acts-as-taggable-on docs)
+===============================================================================
+
+class User < ActiveRecord::Base
+  is_taggable :tags, :skills, :interests
+end
+
+@user = User.new(:name => "Bobby")
+@user.tag_list = "awesome, slick, hefty"      # this should be familiar
+@user.skill_list = "joking, clowning, boxing" # but you can do it for any context!
+@user.skill_list # => ["joking","clowning","boxing"] as TagList
+@user.save
+
+@user.tags # => [<Tag name:"awesome">,<Tag name:"slick">,<Tag name:"hefty">]
+@user.skills # => [<Tag name:"joking">,<Tag name:"clowning">,<Tag name:"boxing">]
+
+# The old way
+User.find_tagged_with("awesome", :on => :tags) # => [@user]
+User.find_tagged_with("awesome", :on => :skills) # => []
+
+# The better way (utilizes named_scope)
+User.tagged_with("awesome", :on => :tags) # => [@user]
+User.tagged_with("awesome", :on => :skills) # => []
+
+@frankie = User.create(:name => "Frankie", :skill_list => "joking, flying, eating")
+User.skill_counts # => [<Tag name="joking" count=2>,<Tag name="clowning" count=1>...]
+@frankie.skill_counts
+
+Finding Tagged Objects
+======================
+
+is_taggable utilizes Rails 2.1's named_scope to create an association
+for tags. This way you can mix and match to filter down your results, and it
+also improves compatibility with the will_paginate gem:
+
+class User < ActiveRecord::Base
+  is_taggable :tags
+  named_scope :by_join_date, :order => "created_at DESC"
+end
+
+User.tagged_with("awesome").by_date
+User.tagged_with("awesome").by_date.paginate(:page => params[:page], :per_page => 20)
+
+Relationships
+=============
+
+You can find objects of the same type based on similar tags on certain contexts.
+Also, objects will be returned in descending order based on the total number of 
+matched tags.
+
+@bobby = User.find_by_name("Bobby")
+@bobby.skill_list # => ["jogging", "diving"]
+
+@frankie = User.find_by_name("Frankie")
+@frankie.skill_list # => ["hacking"]
+
+@tom = User.find_by_name("Tom")
+@tom.skill_list # => ["hacking", "jogging", "diving"]
+
+@tom.find_related_skills # => [<User name="Bobby">,<User name="Frankie">]
+@bobby.find_related_skills # => [<User name="Tom">] 
+@frankie.find_related_skills # => [<User name="Tom">] 
+
+
+Dynamic Tag Contexts
+====================
+
+In addition to the generated tag contexts in the definition, it is also possible
+to allow for dynamic tag contexts (this could be user generated tag contexts!)
+
+@user = User.new(:name => "Bobby")
+@user.set_tag_list_on(:customs, "same, as, tag, list")
+@user.tag_list_on(:customs) # => ["same","as","tag","list"]
+@user.save
+@user.tags_on(:customs) # => [<Tag name='same'>,...]
+@user.tag_counts_on(:customs)
+User.find_tagged_with("same", :on => :customs) # => [@user]
+
+Tag Ownership
+=============
+
+Tags can have owners:
+
+class User < ActiveRecord::Base
+  is_tagger
+end
+
+class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base
+  is_taggable :locations
+end
+
+@some_user.tag(@some_photo, :with => "paris, normandy", :on => :locations)
+@some_user.owned_taggings
+@some_user.owned_tags
+@some_photo.locations_from(@some_user)
+
+Caveats
+===============================================================================
+
+1) Your underlying database *must* support multi-INSERT
+2) You probably need Rails 2.1+, but seriously named_scope is so cool you need
+   it anyways.
+3) You cannot use callbacks/validations on the Tagging model (you can still use
+   them like normal on your Taggables and Taggers...)
