Well, it's certainly past time to get rid of the ridiculous "keyword" option after the article!:)

Keywords are a good thing, especially in tying common subjects. Some people still use mail lists to link threads. I know that I've clicked on keyword links and found some threads that I missed.

The poster here was complaining about people posting one thread but including it in all of the topics. What is the purpose of crosslinking subtopics? Eg. Activism, Conservatism, Crime/Corruption, Government, Misc., News...

I could see choosing a couple but some people get out of hand with it (some have clicked every state).
