Hi Ferret --

The "tags" help to link the photo to common interests. The system then uses these things to help guide you to similar content. And you can use them to find other material you like.

For instance, because I have "liked" many photos that are tagged with #CB1100, I am more likely to be shown photos that have #CB1100 as a tag. Additionally, I can type in "CB1100" and find all photos that have that tag.

If you see an @ sign, it is a link to a particular person/profile. Like if you were on it, and I made a post of your bike that said -- "Check out @Ferret and his cool #CB1100." -- someone could click on your name and find photos that you've posted.

Signed, your friendly #millenial.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but there is no "thank you" button on this forum Thanks for creating this thread, OP. I followed some mentioned pages.

As I recall, AgentJones, is less advanced in years than many of us. He probably spends time on that Facebook site where, I’m told, they have buttons for everything.

, peterbaron, is, I fear, a smilie or emoji not a button, although it is true you can click it like a button and it magically appears in your post.

Call me patronizing, but I like to think it will be good for AgentJones to experience first hand how we old timers had to do things.

Update: as far as I see a lot of people here have a lot of followers. I was always wondering - how people reach Instagram popularity? One of my friends keeps telling me that it can't be made without a little cheating. He told me that he had found a way to buy followers on Instagram and now I'm thinking about doing so, I dunno if it's a good idea, but I will try. This friend of mine said that the idea is brilliant - the more subscribers I will have, the more will come on their own.

AgentJones, do you have any interest in famoid?
