Has anyone wondered why they ask for tags when sending a message? Why would a message have tags? Does this mean that anyone can read them if they type the keywords in for the tags? Are these messages going to appear on the net? Not sure, myself, so I thought I would ask and see what others think. Happy mylotting! Have fun and earn lots! :o)

The website search bar (Top right of the page) can be changed to search various things like discussions and pictures. This feature can also search messages :) Thats where the tags come into play ;) Hope I have helped!

Hi LeeHolt, So, is the search just for our own private use, or others can see our messages, too? Thanks for your comment and answer! I hope you do well on mylot and have lots of fun. Have a great day! :o)

Hello Maryanne, Even I wondered about this a lot of times but I never thought of starting a discussion! Hats off to you for starting one. Frankly speaking, I have been irritated when they ask for tags for messages, their replies and all. I don't know why are they doing this. may be they want to facilitate our search of messages. Suppose we want to view contents of a particular message after some time then may be we could find them by using tags. However, I'm not sure about that.
