Using tags

Tags let you assign keywords to your bookmarks that are meaningful to you. Tags provide a useful way to categorize your bookmarks and search for bookmarks that are of interest to you. Use the tag cloud to view all tags assigned to bookmarks in the list, to determine the popularity of a tag, and to access bookmarks associated with a tag.

Before you begin

You can choose how the tags in a tag collection are displayed – either in a list or in a cloud. A tag list displays the tags in a list starting with the most popular tags first. A tag cloud visualizes the popularity of the tags in the collection by grouping the tags together and displaying the most frequently used tags in larger, darker text and less often used tags in smaller, lighter text. Tags are single words, or multiple words connected with hyphens or underscores – for example, social-bookmarking, status_reports, and payroll would all be valid tags.
