Another cool tool is the "Tag Cloud"

Whenever you post a new page, photo or video, there is a box below  the Text box for entering "Tags."  Enter in that box whatever word would be a key word to search for  if someone wanted to find your topic.

Example, when this page was created, we entered these "Tags" so that people using "Search" could be directed here:   Tag, Tags, Tag Cloud, Graffiti, Help, Site Help, How to use this Site, About this site, Organizing tools, tagging photos

The Tag Cloud (it's like an entire site index, alphabetized & ranked by SIZE too):

The Tag Cloud can be seen on many pages, but is best seen on the "Activity" page. On many pages, on the Right or Lef-hand column, half way down the page you will see "Tag Cloud."  In the box below that, you will see blue words of various sizes.  This is a graphical representation of the various "Tags" that members have put on their posts.  The more often a Tag is entered, the larger it appears in the cloud.  If the modern world had a tag cloud for what is on everyone's mind, the words "SEX" and "MONEY" would be huge (because everyone is interested in those and creating thoughts (tags) to it).  Whereas, there are much fewer people thinking about "belly-button lint" (so you will see it in the tag cloud, click if interested) but it is shown in a very small font.

The Tag Cloud will be different depending on the page you are on.  If you are on your page, the cloud will reflect Tags that you entered.  If you are on a group page, the cloud will reflect the group's tags, etc.  On the Activity page, the tag cloud reflects all the Trike Pilot's at AllTrikes tags.

For example the word "Ivanpah" is very small, but clicking on it will show you all instances on the site where Ivanpah, Nevada desert is mentioned.

Remember that the size of the text (for example "Ivanpah") does not relate to how often members are clicking on it (in fact, I suspect, if Trike Pilots read this, Ivanpah, will be clicked on more often).  The size of the text relates to how many times that word was entered as a "Tag" word when that content was posted!

If the word "The" had a Tag cloud it would be in HUGE letters.  However, if members were given the choice to give the word "The" or "SEX" a thumbs up, "the" would get no likes.

The = Big but Trike Pilots not raving about it.   SEX = Big and Trike Pilots Raving about it.

Summary:

            Tag Cloud----- Big Words = Lots of Articles citing it as a Tag word.
