The Tags

[Kevin]

Most members don't seem to like the tag feature. It adds keyword index for posts, very useful actually. I also find it's fun to add a couple keywords for a thread.

I see that this would be useful when posting studies (which we do a lot on this forum). Put in a tag for what is being tested (herb, food, etc.) for what condition (cancer, blood pressure, obesity) , and a tag for results (beneficial, or detrimental).

then you can easily bring up studies pertaining to something that you are interested in.

actually, I hope that NIH is doing something like this. The benefit is by storing this type of information for every trial out there, this enables you to do a reverse lookup by symptom, and find the natural herbs/foods/therapy/etc. that have been shown to have a benefit.

Just to clarify, tags are not limited to thread starter, any members can tag any threads.
