What is tagging on Facebook? - shadow ... not prometheus! - 08-25-2013 10:30 PM

I just received a Facebook notification on my Yahoo! email saying I received friend requests, notifications and PHOTO TAG. What is that? I did see once one of my "friends" tagged on my newsfeed. I checked my newsfeed and timeline to see this tagging of me but didn't see it. Nor did I see it on a "friends" newsfeed either. I also checked "help" on Facebook to see about this and learned how to activate checking a tag out first before allowing it. Do these tags only happen to photos I post or how does this work and how can I see this tagged photo? Where is It?
I did not see any tagged photos in my photos. Someone tagged me and it does not show up on my timeline. I'm still not getting this. More answers please!

A tag is a special kind of link. When you tag someone, you create a link to their timeline. The post you tag the person in may also be added to that person's Timeline.
Your Friends can tag you in their photo and posts. Go to your Facebook photos page(click photo tab from Timeline) you can see your tagged photos there
