What is TagMan?
TagMan is a game that combines the classic hangman game with web 2.0 tags.
What are tags?
Tags are used to label the subject or category of blog posts, photos and other items on the Web. TagMan uses Technorati tags, Squidoo tags, del.icio.us tags and Flickr tags to generate words for the hangman game.
Choose a version of the game from the list below. Read the TagMan FAQ if you need help.
