Newbie here!
I've started tagging my books: I click on the "+tag" button, type the first few letters of the tag I want, and a list pops up. Generally, I want to choose several items off that list (such as horse, horses, horse care, horseback riding), but it only lets me choose one at a time. So I have to repeat the whole process for each tag. Is there a better way? |

You can make up your own tags. |

True-- but is there any way to type in more than one at a time? Also, if my tags don't match the tags in the system, it pretty much defeats my purpose: for my books to be more easily found. |

oic... I don't know of any shortcuts. I'm not sure how valuable it is to advertize via tags? I know I don't look for books that way. Do you know about the Book Bazaae forum. http://www.paperbackswap.com/forum/topic.php?t=39715 You can advertize your bookshelf there. Though many ppl are there looking for deals you might find some specifically interested in horse books (for example). |

That is the actual purpose of Tags, so that someone looking for something (like horse care) will be able to click a Tag they like and see a good list of books with that Tag. Unforunately the implementation of Tags has been so bumpy I don't think a lot of people use them. As for a short cut, I haven't found one. I do a fair amount of tagging and I have tried to find a quicker way, but no luck so far. |

I use tags to find books all the time, either from the Club Tag Cloud, or ones that I stumble upon. Once more tags are being used, the site will offer searchable tags, which will be awesome. I had sent feedback requesting this and that was the response I got. |

I wonder if they will also implement a more efficient way of tagging? |
