Hi all,

I want to implement tagging for my resources, but I found lots  
“acts\_as\_taggable” available: “acts\_as\_tabble”, “acts\_as\_taggable\_on”,  
“acts\_as\_taggable\_on\_steroid”, etc. Some of them are not in active  
development, and I do not know which one is more popular. So, any  
suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Difei.

I just used acts\_as\_taggable\_on and am very happy with it.
