Can someone please explain the tags and the trackbacks fields at the foot of new posts.

ie, should we be filling these in and with what? also, what benefit are they.:confused:

I have my own ideas, but would like to hear it from people in the know.

If you are using content in your post from someone's blog or website it is good to give them a trackback. This will let them know you have used their information and in return they may give you a link on their site. Because this is a forum the trackback will come back to your post if they decide to link it. If you do it on your blog you can gain a few backlinks to your blog this way.

Tags are like your social bookmarking tags. I suppose if you wanted to take the time to use focused keywords in your reply or post tags can help it gain SE rank.
