Have You Noticed the Little Blue Labels on Websites?

In summary, the conversation discusses the presence of blue labels on certain posts that have been tagged with keywords. The idea is to make posts more searchable by adding tags, and these can be added by scrolling down and clicking "edit tags". The conversation also mentions a "tag cloud", but it is unclear what this refers to.

I have just noticed little blue labels alongside certain pasts and when you click on them you get some keywords. I can see words that look to me equally key that have no labels. If this is because the list is not complete, then when it is most posts will have a label so then there would be little point in it.

What is the idea or criterion? :confused:

Those are posts that people have added tags to. You can add tags to posts too, if you think they are worth making more searchable with keywords. Just scroll down a little and look for the box that says tags and then to the right it says "edit tags." You can click that and add some.

Thank you.
Gosh, has that always been there? I only noticed them yesterday. :blushing: Well it is quite a pale blue.

I did a tag search for something that is not there and got something called a 'tag cloud'. :blushing: What's a tag cloud?
 

FAQ: Have You Noticed the Little Blue Labels on Websites?

What do the blue labels indicate?

The blue labels indicate a specific category or group for the labeled items. This could be based on their properties, purpose, or any other criteria.

How are the items selected for the blue label category?

Are the blue labels universally used in all scientific fields?

No, the use of blue labels may vary depending on the specific field of science and the research being conducted. Some fields may not use labels at all, while others may use different colors or labeling systems.

Can items have multiple blue labels?

Yes, it is possible for items to have multiple blue labels if they meet the criteria for multiple categories. This can often provide more detailed information about the item and its properties.

Is there a standard for creating and using blue labels?
