Limiting search with tags

If when searching or taking new notes, you only want to focus on notes of a certain tag, you can select the tag in the right hand side and it will only limit the search to notes with that tag.

This creates a focused searching, viewing, and adding notes experience when you want to focus on that particular topic alone.

You can focus and also connect thoughts from your different areas together because everything in life is interconnected.

Your personal desires and learnings may help at work, but sometimes you just want exactly work notes, so this is a win win for both worlds.
