<b>Tag Cloud Searches - find it fast</b>
At the bottom of the Advanced Search screen is the "tag cloud," a list of all entered tags. The size and boldness of each tag reflects the number of items that tag will return. The largest and boldest have the most items tagged.
Tags provide Blab with user-defined search capabilities, which is a fancy way of saying that we can associate "keywords" with a given thread to make finding relevant threads easier.
How are threads tagged? At the bottom of the thread form is a box identified as "Tags." Click the "edit Tags" link and enter any keywords you feel are appropriate to the thread. Adding tags will allow you and others to locate it more easily when you search for threads using the "search" feature. Please note that we will be monitoring tags for appropriate content.
Important note about tags: Tags are *not* a universal search of all items containing the word or phrase. They return only items someone has designated with that tag. This is helpful because irrelevant uses of a term are not included in the results. But if you do want a universal search for a term you should use the Advanced Search.
