Yesterday, I talked about some even-less-frequently-used-tags<\/a>. Today, we’ll talk about some sparsely-sporadic-tags[1].<\/p>\n

Note that many of these alternate tags could be expressed with the #hashtag, but that is more ambiguous, and requires more reading in on the part of the user.<\/p>\n

=tags are for when you’re trying to make an equivalence that people might not normally think. Example: <\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I ate an apple” =orange<\/p>\n

or, more humourously:<\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I ate an apple” =horse<\/p>\n

+tags are for when you want to add an idea to a post. Example:<\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I ate an apple” +alsotoday<\/p>\n

\/tags or ‘\/slashtags[2]’ are for when you have an alternate word that might also fit. Sometimes this is actually what happened, sometimes humourous. A humorous example:<\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I rode a horse.” \/goat<\/p>\n

An ‘actually what happened’ example:<\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I rode a horse.” \/merrygoround<\/p>\n

\\tags or \\backslashtags are for subdivisons within a concept. Example:<\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I rode a horse.” \\goldendelicious<\/p>\n

|pipetags may be my favourite. These show how you ‘pipe’ a concept through another one, giving it a whole new meaning. Example:<\/p>\n

“So, yesterday, I ate an apple.” |pie<\/p>\n
