    My blog is updated with videos from all over on a daily basis and i want to know whether you guys think i need more tags on my posts?
    Example
    http://www.vidstowatch.com/370/

    And also check out a couple of the others to see whether taking full advantage of the tagging system? If you think i should add more, does it really make that much difference?

    Thank you

    Regarding your question, I think for the video you specified, the tags are pretty good. I would personally add some tags related to "Christmas Lights Synced To Music" if your site has other videos that would fit within the group, but I think you have decent general tags there.

    Now off your question, I loved the video. Someone is nuts to have done that (unless the in-depth syncing is a lot easier than I expect).

    Thank you for your comment. I'll add more tags to my posts from now on.

    I know right, absolutely crazy! Apparently all of it's done by a computer program that sorts the syncing out prettty much on it's own.

    Yeah, I am aware that there are computer programs for controlling lights (wasn't thinking of some guy frantically throwing dozens of light switches on and off :eek: ) but I am not familiar with the programs beyond that. I was thinking along the lines of the effort that goes into programming which lights to do which things at every point in the song.

    As for adding more tags, like I said, I would just add more detailed tags that were more focused on the specific content of a video IF you have at least a few more videos like it that can use the same tags.
