Content can be categorized by both feature-specific categories, or by site-wide categories. Categorizing your content can be quite useful to both you and the users of your site. For instance you may have a blog entry, a review of a new book on Camus, and you may choose to categorize this blog post as "Camus", "absurdism", and "literary criticism". Meanwhile you may also have posted some class material that focused on literary criticism on a different topic, which you categorize as "literary criticism". Both the class material and your blog post on Camus can now appear together if a user searches your site for "literary criticism" or clicks on the category links that will appear in your posts.

What is a vocabulary?

A vocabulary is a set of terms that apply to a particular topic or type of content.

Tags

The default vocabulary for your site is called "tags" and applies to every content type. It uses the concept of "free-tagging". Free-tagging means that you enter a term or terms when you create or edit a post. These terms then become associated with the post and become part of the vocabulary.
