When you're posting a resource, include a 'select all' option for tags.

Also the question if you mean all possible tags. If so, I don't think it's a good option as I understand it. E.g. to my mind a lot of the tags are mutually exclusive (Rails 32. vs. 4.0, Beginner vs. intermediate vs. expert)

They aren't mutually exclusive because a lot of resources have levels for
all different types of learners - and the Ruby on Rails tutorial for
instances has a version for Rails 3.2 as well as Rails 4.0.

Yes there are such resources, in my experience that's just not the majority of resources. That the Railstutorial is for multiple versions is extraordinary. Every book I ever read about Rails just considers one specific version. Same is true skill wise for most resources - e.g. I know no resources that are both beginner/introduction level and expert level. I know some resource collection that have beginner and expert material. Also topic wise a lot of resources focus on a couple of topics (Again, the excellent rails guide is an exception).

Just saying that personally I doubt that selecting all tags is one of the more common use case. And I don't want us to get feature creep :-)

yes, that makes sense! thanks. Just was capturing some feedback from a
friend who tried to use the site.
