Last December we included advice on tagging in the newsletter, but since it’s so important (and because we have a new feature!), we’d like to revisit the topic. Relevant tags help your article get found in searches, they help our Editorial team know where to publish your work, and they help readers understand your article’s subject at a glance.
Now, it’s easier than ever to add relevant tags to your articles. We’ve added a new feature in the Online Editor that suggests tags for your article based off of your text. Getting tag suggestions is easy; when you’ve finished writing your article, scroll down to the Tags field. Like always, you can enter your own tags or, you can click the new ‘Get Suggestions’ button to witness tagging magic. The new button automatically scans your content for relevant keywords and suggests tags for you. You can keep them or erase them, it’s up to you.
Here’s a short video that demonstrates how to use the new feature (for best viewing, expand it to full screen):
Did you see? Writinghood has received a complete makeover! Stripped down to its bare content, rebuilt and redesigned, this site is looking better than ever! (And how about those articles?)
Updating Writinghood wasn’t just for vanity, it also helped improve the site’s overall functionality for Triond and the community. Now it’s simpler to navigate, clearer to read, and easier to leave comments.
The redesign of this site from our content network is just a taste of what’s in store for 2009. Stay tuned for more feature updates and announcements.

Behold – the Triond Forum! A place for you to share ideas, get feedback and ask questions to each other openly and easily within the Triond community.
We wrote to you in the newsletter that one of our New Year’s resolutions is to listen and respond to your feedback better, and the fruit of that effort is already apparent as we’ve just released this first new feature of the year. A forum for users is one feature that several of you have suggested, and we were happy to provide it for you.
Today, the new Triond Forum is live. As we work towards building a strong Triond community, we feel that the forum will be an important part of helping you share information with one another more efficiently.
There are a few topics on the forum to help you get the conversation going:
