New feature: topic pages and tags (updated again)

You can now click the tags beneath a news story to catch up with all stories about that topic. For example, here are all the news stories on cable cuts in the Middle East: cable cuts

Here’s everything about the Archbishop of Canterbury’s comments on sharia law: rowan williams

Here are all 31, semi-obsessive stories so far on the S.F. Zoo tiger mauling: sf zoo

On model Padma Lakshmi: padma lakshmi

On author Hari Kunzru: hari kunzru

When you’re posting a news story, you can add tags (optional, but so useful). Please try and be specific:

Too broad: entertainment

Just right: mira nair, kal penn, the namesake

Update: Added a list of tags in the sidebar (thanks, shlok).

Update 2: Tags now autocomplete as you type them in.

Probably better. Couldn’t picture UB with a cloud.

It would be too embarrassing. Giant tags for rushdie, padma, tiger and hard news in 3 point type.

Haha! Just pictured it.

I didn’t know where to whine. But just wanted to mention the news feed is not showing up on my firefox rss reader for a while.
