+1 from me, and i would add option to limit number of tags in one post though.
Daniel Hofverberg:
I have to agree with Kindred on this one. Although such a feature could have its uses (especially on small and medium-sized boards), I think it would be more likely to be annoying, as well as open to abuse/security issues.
Perhaps I'm just old-fashioned, but personally I think this sounds like overkill. But as long as the feature would be possible to turn off both globally (from the admin interface) and for each user in their profile, I wouldn't mind such a function being added.
Ricky.:
Well, +1 from side, it will actually help to increase activity.
As already discussed,
--> User should have option to disable / enable such notifications from her profile.
--> User group based permission to use such BBC
--> Can have option to send notification only to member if he is in buddy list.. or like .. receive notification only from buddies.

Being able to tag a user is something that is sorely needed. It helps keep people engaged in the community, but it is rougher for Admins, Moderators, and Mod Developers.
This can easily be controlled by allowing an option for the user to ingore tags within a topic. For example, a mod developer might want to select ingore being tagged in his/her own mod support topic. In other cases, the ingore option can be used when it is abused within a topic.
Also, you should only be allowed to tag user's that are participating within that particular topic. Otherwise, people will tag users to drag them into a topic conversation they do not care for.
Mick.:
I dig it. Facebook uses it.
One can always turn it off in profile notifications?
