    Thank you. I always forget to tag my RECords and I need to be better about it. That may be a project for the future... going back and tagging.

    Could I suggest that on the back end of things there could be some programming to allow for truncated searches? Because that would be fantastic. (Ok, I'm done being the library school kid over here).

    Good question, ellieyah. I would tag all of them! Any variation of a word (especially a verb) is going to be extra useful to the community. Think of the typical mentality we have when we do a keyword search. We generally are pretty specific when we do searches, so being specific when you tag is ideal. I often do phrases too, so for "jump" I may include "people jumping" or "person jumps." I try and cover as many words/phrases that pertain to what's in the record. Hope that helps!

    ahhh awesome, this has been so helpful, i shall start tagging my RECords right away! but... say i have a video of someone jumping, would i tag "jump","jumps" and "jumping"? or is just "jump" fine? (jump is a ridiculous word now).
