Having been using my Nokia N900 for two weeks and more already, I have already learned the Ups and Downs of this product. The learning curve when using the Nokia N900 is not that long, but still there are some gaps and some holes to fill through which could make a casual smartphone user at its wits end when they encounter a bug or two when using the Geek’s Mobile Internet Tablet the Nokia N900…

Indeed the Photo Tagging is a snappy feature that is integrated to the Nokia N900, though there are some problems, specially with the tagging system it has…. Well, it does not function the way tags really do function. To get bigger fonts on the tag cloud the more frequent it is used. Plus another factor that left casual N900 users frustrated are removing Photo Tags which shouldn’t be in the tag cloud in the first place…

Imagine if you accidentally entered a mispelled tag for your photo or video or any media that you would want to share and have no means of removing it, frustrating right?

Well, heads up since I have got a simple solution for you.. Here you go..

Open your X Terminal and type gconftool –set –type list –list-type=string /apps/osso/image-viewer/recent_tags ‘[]‘ and you should see your tag cloud get cleaned up.. Well not thoroughly since only the tags that are still associated with an image remains on the cloud… So those mispelled tags which were never used on a photo are now gone.

That simple trick did a good job cleaning up my Photo Tags, so try the same method at your own risk… If something happens to your mobile internet tablet then I dont have anything to do with that since the method I posted here worked for me a 100%..
