Personalization and tags

Yes, we have tags. Let’s start with a brief introduction.

We’ve based myFeedz around the concept of tags as the central navigation system in this site. We look at them and see a pretty good way of capturing someone’s interests or storing details about an article, and this blog post is to give you some insights on how to use them.

Where do tags come from?

Regarding articles, myFeedz automatically tags all incoming articles and they can also be tagged by users. When it comes to your profile, tags are never automatically added by myFeedz. You only get suggestions based on the type of articles you read and feeds you subscribe to.

Finally, Personalize: Tags

This page helps you manage your tags. On the left side you see the tags you already added while on the right, the ones myFeedz thinks you might want to add in the “Suggested tags” section. You can also pick from the “System tags” which shows the tags everyone uses.

As you hover over the tags in the administration interface, you might notice a small red cross popping up. Clicking on this small icon will delete the tag. If you never want to see that tag again, you’d want to also add it to the “Ignored tags” list.
