Create search tags in posts similar to how hashtags work

[Shane W.]

Would it be possible to add a “tags” section to the bottom of a post similar to how hashtags work or when you upload to YouTube?

I know the keyword alert function kind of works like this, but sometimes the post won’t always refer to all the terminology of what the discussion is about.

I’m not saying people go crazy and tag every possible word the same way that people over hashtag as evident in this video.

It just might be an added tool to help people find what they want, especially given the search for older topics on the site doesn’t work all that well.

I noticed the marketplace has adopted something similar already.

My only concern it is might create an overload of notifications/alerts for people so I'm curious to see what everyone thinks.

Maybe @John Steele would have some insight on how to make it work properly?

What are your thoughts @Brandon Turner and @Joshua Dorkin ?
