The latest upgrade has many minor feature additions. One of them I just enabled (didn't realize it didn't come enabled by default). This new feature gives us the ability to tag topics at the point the topic is created. This will help turn up the best possible results when users are searching the forums. I encourage you to use this feature.
Example - If I were starting up a trip report topic on Hallett Peak, I'd use these tags for the topic - trip report,hallett peak,rmnp,hiking,aaron....
You can include any tags that you think would be helpful for future searches for your specific topic or for your topic subject in general.
