Tags on FlashcardDB

Tags on FlashcardDB are not just an afterthought! Once you start to assign tags to your flashcards, new features become available right away.
FlashcardDB automatically combines your card sets into groups based on the tags you give them. When you "study a tag" FlashcardDB includes all card sets in that group in your study session.
As well, you can drill-down from the high-level view of all of your flashcards to obtain separate graphs and stats for the study results for each of your tags. (Of course tags provide you with a way to organize your card sets too.. but it doesn't end there!)
An example: The sample My Flashcards homepage shows nine (imaginary) card sets assigned to four tags. Notice that on the fictional user sebastian's page for the tag chemistry, there is now only three card sets (the ones sharing that tag) and an option to "study chemistry". If sebastian and those card sets actually existed, he could click "study chemistry" and study all three card sets at the same time.
