+= acts_as_taggable_on_steroids
+
+If you find this plugin useful, please consider a donation to show your support!
+
+  http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_send-money
+  
+  Email address: jonathan.viney@gmail.com
+  
+== Instructions
+
+This plugin is based on acts_as_taggable by DHH but includes extras
+such as tests, smarter tag assignment, and tag cloud calculations.
+
+== Installation
+
+  ruby script/plugin install git://github.com/jviney/acts_as_taggable_on_steroids.git
+
+== Usage
+
+=== Prepare database
+
+Generate and apply the migration:
+
+  ruby script/generate acts_as_taggable_migration
+  rake db:migrate
+
+=== Basic tagging
+
+Let's suppose users have many posts and we want those posts to have tags.
+The first step is to add +acts_as_taggable+ to the Post class:
+
+  class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+    acts_as_taggable
+    
+    belongs_to :user
+  end
+  
+We can now use the tagging methods provided by acts_as_taggable, <tt>#tag_list</tt> and <tt>#tag_list=</tt>. Both these
+methods work like regular attribute accessors.
+
+  p = Post.find(:first)
+  p.tag_list # []
+  p.tag_list = "Funny, Silly"
+  p.save
+  p.tag_list # ["Funny", "Silly"]
+  
+You can also add or remove arrays of tags.
+
+  p.tag_list.add("Great", "Awful")
+  p.tag_list.remove("Funny")
+  
+In your views you should use something like the following:
+
+  <%= f.label :tag_list %>
+  <%= f.text_field :tag_list, :size => 80 %>
+
+=== Finding tagged objects
+
+To retrieve objects tagged with a certain tag, use find_tagged_with.
+
+  Post.find_tagged_with('Funny, Silly')
+  
+By default, find_tagged_with will find objects that have any of the given tags. To
+find only objects that are tagged with all the given tags, use match_all.
+
+  Post.find_tagged_with('Funny, Silly', :match_all => true)
+  
+See <tt>ActiveRecord::Acts::Taggable::InstanceMethods</tt> for more methods and options.
+
+=== Tag cloud calculations
+
+To construct tag clouds, the frequency of each tag needs to be calculated.
+Because we specified +acts_as_taggable+ on the <tt>Post</tt> class, we can
+get a calculation of all the tag counts by using <tt>Post.tag_counts</tt>. But what if we wanted a tag count for
+an single user's posts? To achieve this we call tag_counts on the association:
+
+  User.find(:first).posts.tag_counts
+  
+A helper is included to assist with generating tag clouds. Include it in your helper file:
+
+  module ApplicationHelper
+    include TagsHelper
+  end
+  
+You can also use the <tt>counts</tt> method on <tt>Tag</tt> to get the counts for all tags in the database.
+
+  Tag.counts
+
+Here is an example that generates a tag cloud.
+
+Controller:
+
+  class PostController < ApplicationController
+    def tag_cloud
+      @tags = Post.tag_counts
+    end
+  end
+  
+View:
+  <% tag_cloud @tags, %w(css1 css2 css3 css4) do |tag, css_class| %>
+    <%= link_to tag.name, { :action => :tag, :id => tag.name }, :class => css_class %>
+  <% end %>
+  
+CSS:
+
+  .css1 { font-size: 1.0em; }
+  .css2 { font-size: 1.2em; }
+  .css3 { font-size: 1.4em; }
+  .css4 { font-size: 1.6em; }
+
+=== Caching
+
+It is useful to cache the list of tags to reduce the number of queries executed. To do this,
+add a column named <tt>cached_tag_list</tt> to the model which is being tagged. The column should be long enough to hold
+the full tag list and must have a default value of null, not an empty string.
+
+  class CachePostTagList < ActiveRecord::Migration
+    def self.up
+      add_column :posts, :cached_tag_list, :string
+    end
+  end
+
+  class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+    acts_as_taggable
+    
+    # The caching column defaults to cached_tag_list, but can be changed:
+    # 
+    # set_cached_tag_list_column_name "my_caching_column_name"
+  end
+
+The details of the caching are handled for you. Just continue to use the tag_list accessor as you normally would.
+Note that the cached tag list will not be updated if you directly create Tagging objects or manually append to the
+<tt>tags</tt> or <tt>taggings</tt> associations. To update the cached tag list you should call <tt>save_cached_tag_list</tt> manually.
+
+=== Delimiter
+
+If you want to change the delimiter used to parse and present tags, set TagList.delimiter.
+For example, to use spaces instead of commas, add the following to config/environment.rb:
+
+  TagList.delimiter = " "
+
+=== Unused tags
+
+Set Tag.destroy_unused to remove tags when they are no longer being
+used to tag any objects. Defaults to false.
+
+  Tag.destroy_unused = true
+
+=== Other
+
+Problems, comments, and suggestions all welcome. jonathan.viney@gmail.com
