Some of you will have noticed that all threads now have a 'tags' box above. You may also have noticed when posting a new thread there is a box for you to provide tags.

What should I use as tags?

Firstly, let me point out that tags are not critical but they do help us in bringing an extra level of classification to the site. Forum based websites can within a short space of time become huge. The bigger they get the harder it becomes to find information. The tag system combats this to a large extent.

When you create a thread please try and add some relevant tags... exactly what tags you use is entirely up to you.

This thread for instance is tagged with 'tags,tagging,search'.
A thread about student bursaries may be tagged with 'bursary,finance,money'
A thread about continuity of care in the maternity services may be tagged with 'continuity,care,benefits,maternity services'

Clearly some areas of the site do not warrant tags - the introductions forum is clearly one of these.

I hope you can all help the site by using these tags and if anyone has any questions regarding the benefits, or use of tags then please let me know.

Cheers all!
