I went a while without posting, so I don’t remember when WordPress.com added this alleged feature, but now when I post something, a little popup box appears suggesting some tags I could add. Occasionally, they’re tags I’ve already added, and the rest of the time they’re somewhere between useless and irrelevant.

For my previous post about a state senator’s electoral dishonesty, for instance, it offered up this:

Four of those have nothing to do with the post, and “existence” is too broad to be meaningful. Unless it’s usually used for philosophical musings on the nature of existence, in which case it has nothing to do with the post, either.

I’d have gotten better results just picking a few random words out of the post, or hell, a few random words out of the dictionary. This algorithm does nothing other than waste screen space for however many seconds it takes me to click it closed.
