Tagging

did provides full-text searching on log entries, and thus implicitly supports "tagging":

$ did Installed Gentoo. +work
$ did Freed Kevin. +personal
$ did Hacked the planet. +work 
$ did log -s +personal
3  Freed Kevin. +personal  06 Jan | 05:29 PM

You may choose any tagging convention. Note, however, that # must be enclosed within quotations to prevent the shell from parsing it as a comment:

$ did 'Hacked the planet. #work'
