One of the things that I really like about not using the Tag Browser is the serendipitous connections I often find between books.

I'll type in an author's name, usually without the "author:" prefix and I'll notice a book in my search results where the publisher's blurb in the Comments mentions that this book is inspired by the author I'm searching for. Or...

I'll type in part of a title for a book I'm looking for ... say "Black Hole" ... and find four other books on that subject. Or ...

I'll type in a character name (in my tags and Comments) and find reviews in other Comments comparing the character in that book to the character in the book/series I'm searching for.

I'm sure there are as many ways to use Calibre as there are users, but I just don't use the Browser much. It's probably also because I use the Content Server so often, where search is available and the TB isn't. I just find it faster to hone in through the search, and save it for later use.
