Metadata & Tagging

How are you tagging your posts? What information are you providing? What information is searchable? How are you categorizing your world?

Tags, categories, labels, titles, folders— these are all kinds of metadata, ways of categorizing the world into groups of similar things. Linguistics is rich with metadata examples, from Part-of-Speech tagging, to the natural class features of sounds, to noun genders, to different kinds of verb endings.
