For example, using tags - Here is a map of all the tags so far.  The larger the tag is, the more popular it is.

The Goal
The goal of tagging is to look at a story and say "wow, I want to see more posts like this one!".  So you view its tags and find a characteristic you would like to see more of.

The Catch
See, the idea behind tagging is that you get to decide what uniquely describes a post.  So the catch is it is up to you to make it work!

The Process
The process of tagging is pretty simple.  You take a post (like this one) and ask yourself "what words describe this story and its images".  You then click Show Tags or Add Tags and click Change, which will let you add and remove tags associated with a story.  If you feel an existing tag doesn't accuratly describe the post, you can remove it.  If you feel there is a phrase that also could describe the post, you can add it.  Sometimes the system will suggest phrases already in the system.  You can accept one of those, or use your own.

Now what?
We need to get started.  I encourage every one of you to go back and tag your old posts.  The more posts on this website that get tagged, the better.

Remember, you can do this to anybodies story, not just your own!

So.... Go fourth and tag!
