4.7 Using Tags

As Julio researched for the various articles that he’s writing, he came across some interesting information that he would like to keep track of. Tagging functionality in Teaming 2.0 enables Julio to create virtual containers for places and entries. Like folders in his e-mail, he can categorize information, and then come back to it at a later time.

4.7.1 Tagging Entries

Julio comes across an entry that he wants to use in his article, “The Benefits of A Paperless Office.”

  1. Julio clicks the entry, then he clicks Tag this.

  2. He clicks in the Personal Tags field and begins to type Benefits.

    Because Julio has already created a tag called Benefits, when he begins to type the word, the tag appears in the drop-down list.

  3. He selects Benefits, then clicks Add.

    Julio has now tagged this entry with the Benefits tag.

Next, Julio sees an entry that he wants to use in his article, “The Office of the Future.”

  1. Julio tags the entry with his personal tag, Future.

4.7.2 Tagging Folders

  1. Julio looks in the Top ranked places section, and clicks the Discussion folder.

    He discovers that this folder contains entries that would be useful for his article, “Is A Paperless Institution Realistic?”

  2. In the Tag This Folder section, in the Personal Tags field, Julio begins typing Realistic.

    Because Julio has already created a tag called Realistic, when he begins to type the word, the tag appears in the drop-down list.

  3. He selects Realistic, then clicks Add.

4.7.3 Searching For Tagged Items

  1. Now that Julio has tagged some key information for his articles, when he wants to work on his “The Office of the Future” article, Julio types Future into the Tags field.

    Teaming displays all of the items that Julio has tagged with Future.
