Here is a post on the concept and practice of "User-Tagging" in blogger.
Tagging in general is a way of classifying and organizing information. Sometimes just one person does it and at other times it is done by a community(social tagging).
Coming to the concept of a blog - Tagging is an act of categorizing blog posts with simple key words or phrases. Well yes, labeling blog posts according to their content. Many bloggers use this tagging facility to get their content be found in search results by people who are searching for a particular topic.
But after joining blogger, I got introduced to a new kind of practice - user-to-user tagging. Now from here, all I would like to talk is about the “User-Tagging Practice”.
Are you user-tagophobic? Are you repellent towards user-tagging in blogger?
Do you feel like running away when you are tagged by a fellow blogger?
If your answer to any of the questions is yes, then just express your opinion openly that you are not interested in tagging. User-tagging is nothing but a way of interaction between a circle of friends in blogger. Why should one feel it as a punishment or a compulsion?

For all those who love privacy and like to keep their lives private, I agree that doing a tag is the most annoying thing.But please understand that those who tag you are your friends.
And friend is a person with whom you dare to be yourself...

Don’t you think a friend can understand when you make it clear about your intentions that tagging makes you feel inconvenient?
Cheer up my dear; it is just like a simple friendly game with no restrictions. So, participate only if you feel the idea is interesting or simply stay untouched by saying a good ‘No’.
Blogging is but being yourself, the way you like and all of us bloggers belong to one family…

Dear Lala Bhai,
Blogophobia? Ha ha...
Yes, it's the fear of blogs and blogging :)
Cheers buddy...
I love doing tags.Believe me my blog has more tags then post written by me.Yesterday did one tag and more 3 tags are pending,one is ur.Will do it shortly :)
Did it, Sai!
Yes, it will be interesting to know about our blogger friends through this 'taggig' method. Sometimes, it needs a lot of time to do them, to be interesting. So feel lazy!
Enjoyed doing this 'Four' tag!
@Varunavi Garu :
I actually intended to make this "Tagophobia" a "big comedy post" making everyone laugh aloud... ha ha...
But as I wrote it, there was no scope for humour to be packed in between :)
Sorry Varunavi Garu, for not being regular to your blog, will catch up with all the posts at your new address pretty soon :)
Cheers,
Sai.
Blogging is but being yourself, the way you like and all of us bloggers belong to one family…arre yaar..made me senti...
The idea is very good and interesting, but some people like me may not be up to it.
@Ramesh Bhai, @Onkarji :
Well, just forget about this "Crazy Tagging Mela" going on around. Ha ha...
What do you say - is it not a Crazy Tagging Mela going on around? I don't know, you may like tagging, but I feel it that way...
I just want to convey my sincere thanks to both of you for all the support you give.
Really, you people are such strength and every word of yours is encouraging.
Cheers to both of you...
Hi Sai Charan,
Every time I get tagged, I suffer from a writer's block. My mind goes completely blank and my language skills desert me. I get sleepless nights and anxiety attacks.
After reading your post I realised that there's another side to it also. May be the person who tagged me really wanted to know more about me.So I have decided to approach these tags with more maturity.
I liked the humour in your post. Will tag you in case I need to in future.
This reminds me, I have to do 2 more tags...awww shucks..
Charan, you've shown a lot of people here what tagging is all about. Well done for the humourous way you explained it, taking the fear away.
I enjoy tags. It's a great way to get to know more about other bloggers and likewise for them to get to know you.
SAI ....THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR KIND WISHES....KAVITA DI

Dear Ramesh Bhai,
I will always be here to do any kind of help for you - this song is the "very least one" I could ever do.
Always call me whenever needed, I'll be there for you.
Cheers, Sai.
Thank you for this post. I don't know why I'm so weird/shy? I've seen the tagging but too lazy to add it.
I have this fear of adding the followers widget on my blog...why? not sure exactly... do i have followerphobia?
