Steam Store gets ‘Steam Tagging’ and updates

Steam has had some updates which makes the process of finding games easier.

With Valve trying to update Steam making it as user friendly as possible, they recently announced the new 'Steam Tags'. This is a user-defined categorizing feature.
With this new feature the community can now tag games via their themes, genre and attributes. This is a long awaited yet cool feature from the team behind Steam, since it will come very much in handy.
Another feature to this is that once you've tagged a game, it will then get promoted to it's steam page. This will allow other users to find the game via your tags or similar ones. To begin with, each game shall have a default set of tags that were set by the Developers. 
Of course, this is Steam we're on about so it doesn't just stop there. It was also announced that the Steam store was getting an update, so now you have the ability to browse by popular tags, you can also filter out for specific tags. There will also be options for recommended tags, that are relevant to you because of previous searches.
