'''Many video tutorials are categorized by one-word tags that tell you what they're about.'''

'''Many video tutorials are categorized by one-word tags that tell you what they're about.''' Since a vidtut can belong to more than one category, multiple keywords are used as needed, with the first keyword being the main topic. You can see the tags in action @ http://secondlife.com/video


Here's the "classic" list of older tags — newer ones like "[http://secondlife.vodpod.com/pod/tag/279893/machinima machinima]" and "[http://secondlife.vodpod.com/pod/tag/279893/windlight windlight]" are being added as needed.
The version the vidtut was filmed in can also be a tag (e.g., "2.0.1").
