Free Content Tags are a type of key word or category? that can be assigned to entries for the purpose of reading them as a collection. The writer has a choice of entering a tag when creating an entry?.

A Tag Cloud is a graphic display of the site tags with those more frequently used appearing in a larger font. You can use the Tag Cloud to click on a tag and drill down to a list of entries related to that tag. The Tag Cloud appears on the right margin in many screens.

When you create a post (or edit an existing one), the first field is Title. The second field is Free Content Tags. Just type the tags you want into that field.

As you type, you'll notice a revolving circle at the end of the field. That indicates that the system is trying to lookup/find the tag as you type it. Sometimes, that lookup takes a few seconds, so be patient. If the field provides any listings as a dropdown below the field, you can click on one or more of them to select them. If the system doesn't provide any matches, then you're probably typing in a new content tag. Go right ahead.
