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

The version the vidtut was filmed in can also be a tag (e.g., "2.0.1").
