The Download Munkey : Download This, Download That :)

In my previous post on the pros and cons of different methods of finding stuff on the .NET, I wrote that the lack of tagging for communities (blogs and/or websites in MyBlogLog-speak) in MyBlogLog made searching for sites of interest a major hit-and-miss affair

Not anymore

Now that the much-needed tagging has been implemented for members and communities, it should make finding other users and communities with similiar interests much easier.

It should take a while for existing members to start tagging their communities before tags becomes a viable way of finding relevant sites. Or else you can help by tagging the communities of your friends with relevant tags Yup, you can not only tag your own communities but communities belonging to others too. Don’t worry, they can always delete your tag if they don’t like it ;p

One problem I can foresee is unscrupulous users intentionally using irrelevant but popular tags for their sites to appear in the search results and mislead visitors

Read more about the new tagging feature from this post @ the official MyBlogLog blog.

If you have a community listed on MyBlogLog, do remember to tag them for increased visibility within MyBlogLog (and possibly higher traffic to your blog). For me, it simply means more sites to find and read. Yay!
