How do you tag a value of a tag of an object?
Someone
How do you get the object id of the value of a tag of an object?
Does the value of a tag of an object have an object id?
Is there an object id for a tag on an object?
For example, with this user named "test",
http://sandbox.fluidinfo.com/objects/d6dfa075-44fc-4807-98b1-88c5b784908e/fluiddb/users/name
How do you tag the name?
What is the object id of
http://sandbox.fluidinfo.com/objects/d6dfa075-44fc-4807-98b1-88c5b784908e/fluiddb/users/name?
Can I do something like
http://sandbox.fluidinfo.com/objects/d6dfa075-44fc-4807-98b1-88c5b784908e/fluiddb/users/name/mynamespace1/tag1?

You can't, it's only possible to tag objects. However, you *can* tag
the object representing a tag (note, I don't mean a tag-value - just
making sure I'm as clear as possible).

You can't since the value of a tag isn't an object. As mentioned
above, only objects can be tagged. However, you can search for objects
who have a particular tag attached to them (e.g. "has
ntoll/friends/met") or have a particular tag and value associated with
them (e.g. "ntoll/books/rating > 7"). I know this *isn't* what you're
asking for, but it's the closest I can get to it.

Nope :-) (see above)

All tags and namespaces have an associated object tagged with a
"fluiddb/about" tag value indicating something like "The object
representing the tag ntoll/books/rating". You can also get FluidDB to
tell you the ID of the object representing a tag or namespace by doing
an HTTP GET to a URL like this (for example):
http://fluiddb.fluidinfo.com/tags/ntoll/met
However, there is *not* an object for representing the association of
a specific tag with another object.

You don't tag the "name", you should tag the object whose
fluiddb/users/name = "test". For example, the object with the id:
d6dfa075-44fc-4807-98b1-88c5b784908e could be tagged by you with the
tag "ydfeed/people/met" and associated value "true".

As I mentioned before, the tag-object relationship isn't itself
represented by an object. Instead, simply tag the object whose id is:
d6dfa075-44fc-4807-98b1-88c5b784908e

No. :-) Instead you should use something like this:
http://sandbox.fluidinfo.com/objects/d6dfa075-44fc-4807-98b1-88c5b784908e/mynamespace1/tag1
In summary, you can only tag objects. Tags and namespaces have
associated objects. Tag-values do not.
I hope this is clear. If not please don't hesitate to ask more
questions. I'm more than happy to help.
Have fun with FluidDB!
Best wishes,
Nicholas.
