Mary and I have just released weblog tags into the xangan wilderness!  If you didn’t know, we’ve already released tags for photos and videos, and soon to be audio as well.  Right now, only the user-level tag pages are available for weblogs, but the global pages will be coming soon!  You can add tags to your posts in the editor (if you don’t see a tags field, you may need to switch to a different version of the editor).  You can view the tags on a given weblog on the left-hand side of the page, and you can view all of a user’s tags at a url structured like http://www.xanga.com/patrick/tags. Tags are meant as a way of organizing your own content (which you can start doing now) and of discovering other people’s content that is of interest to you (once the global pages are available).  So, start tagging away!

edit: Global weblog tag pages are now available!  Check out http://www.xanga.com/tags
