Tagging is one of those community style mechanisms by which people can classify content using a particular set of keywords. The more often unique content is tagged, the more "weighted" a tag will become. We on Connect have been thinking about this concept with respect to feedback and possibly other content items and I would like to get your thoughts on how effective this type of indexing is.

Tagging can help to group "some" things together, that is those items that have actually been tagged. So is it the concept that those items which have not been tagged are probably of less importance? Have not been found during a search or people just are not adding the tags when the read page. As a user, when do you decide on adding a tag verses not adding it?

Thanks and I look forward to having some interesting conversations about this topic and learning from the community how this is used.
