A Note on Tagging Posts

  • Guru57350 points

    You must separate tags with a semicolon!

    Entering "DM648 EMAC" in the "Tags" field will result in a single tag called "DM648 EMAC".  The correct/preferred way to enter this would be "DM648; EMAC" which would then result in 2 tags: "DM648" and "EMAC".

    Please try to re-use existing tags when possible so we don't end up with separate tags like "6713", "c6713", and "TMS320C6713".

    For this particular post I am entering the following string into the "Tags" box:

    multiple tags; tag names

    It will now show up as two separate tags.  If you'd like to go back and change something that you mis-tagged in the past all you need to do is click the "Edit Tags" link next to the tags.  This link will only show up for your own posts.

    Thanks Brad!  Here's some further information on tagging:

    Tagging is a way to let the users of a website (or set of websites) put their own labels and categorization on the content they create.  So, rather than a system administrator dictating the categorization of information, the community defines it.  The real value, once there is enough content is that this can then enable community-driven navigation through the various "tag clouds" on the site.

    To learn more, read the wikipedia article for an overview of social tagging: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_%28metadata%29

    Also, check out this youtube video on social bookmarking and tagging.
