As many of you have already noticed, we recently added a link to a 'tags' page in the top navbar.

This page contains about 600 of the most recently used tags. Just today, we added a count next to those tags, indicating the number of posts that have that tag.

Although this is a small apparent change, it comes as a result of some significant changes behind-the-scenes. We have changed the way that tags are stored, and have expanded the information that is stored along with them.

For example, to better determine relationships between tags, we now track which tags are commonly used together. Suggested community tags are tracked in a similar way.

One of Hubski's persistent shortcomings is content discovery. We have some things in the works that will take advantage of this new setup, and will be rolling out some more significant updates to improve content discovery soon.

As always, feedback is much appreciated. Specifically, if there's anything that you find yourself wishing you could know or see on Hubski, let us know. It will definitely help us develop these discovery tools.

Right now they're displayed alphabetically. What about being able to view them by number of posts in a descending order? Would anyone else be interested in a toggle like that?
