Additional improvements in formatting of tags using the [tag:<...>] construct.

@slhck Since you mentioned Amazon EC2, please take a look at questions tagged with amazon-ec2 on SU, along with questions tagged with amazon-*, aws-* and azure-*. Those are similar in spirit to the questions one might ask in the context of Google Compute Engine.

| Jun 24, 2014 at 19:44 | comment | added | Misha Brukman | @slhck Yes, Google Compute Engine (part of Google Cloud Platform) is a hosted VM environment (IaaS) which works as you describe. Google Cloud Platform also includes AppEngine (PaaS) which is a different programming environment. None of these are point-and-click websites for consumer use; these are systems and tools designed for DevOps use (disclosure: I work on Google Cloud Platform). | |

Anything that is just about clicking some buttons on a website would be off topic here though. | |
| Jun 24, 2014 at 17:32 | comment | added | slhck Mod | Just because there are some tags doesn't mean questions that they would apply to are automatically on topic. Note that people (not admins, just regular users) on Stack Overflow could have not a single clue about what is on topic for us (which, unfortunately, is often the case), and still point people here. | |
| Jun 24, 2014 at 17:15 | comment | added | Misha Brukman | @Ramhound The suggestions to move those questions to SU from SO were made by the admins on the respective questions, not me. Also, there are many tags on SU for various cloud-only services, so there's already precedent. | |

| Jun 24, 2014 at 16:31 | comment | added | Ramhound | Why? Question on both are not even on topic at Superuser. Questions about a google product which only exists in the cloud as a service isn't an appropriate question here at Superuser. | |

Added proper markup for tags.
