New features today: tagging and sorting

January’s been a relatively productive month for NetworthIQ. Today, we’re releasing a couple new features.

First is tagging. You can now assign tags to your profile and associate it with a custom group. For instance, the personal finance blogger contingent here can tag their profile “pfblogger” or whatever is decided and by doing so you can go to http://www.networthiq.com/tag/pfblogger and get the listing of users who have used that tag. There are many other possible uses such as tagging your college, high school, company, or whatever other groups you belong to online or in the physical world. I can’t wait to see what people come up with. Go to the “My Account” page to add tags.

The second new feature is sorting of the user listings. Though on the surface, this a minor enhancement, sorting is probably one of the most useful features we’ve finished in a long time. It’s much easier to analyze, group, and discover users now. This is also one of the most requested featues, so we’re happy to put our feedback to use.

Update
Hazzard is leading the way, suggesting “Personal Finance Blogger”. You can see the users using it here: http://www.networthiq.com/tag/Personal+Finance+Blogger

Update 2
Caitlin from Clutter2Cash has created a tag for women. Gender has been requested a couple times in feedback, so this is a great use of tags to satisfy this requirement.

    Just curious. Did you code the larger font for “personal finance blogger”. When I set mine up, the font was small, but since a few other people have joined, the font has gotten larger.

    Yes. How it works is that the more a tag is used the larger it becomes within the display, known as a tag cloud. It doesn’t look like a cloud quite yet, as they do on del.icio.us, Flickr, or 43things. It’ll get there.
