If you open up Autotag editor, there is a list of autotags on the left. When you click on one to select it, you can change its properties on the right. (see the image on the page you linked to)
Lets say I have these two autotags
Surfing - it has one rule, Firefox. So this rule says everything where I used Firefox is Surfing.
Now lets say I have one more autotag 'Social network sites' and it has a rule
www.facebook.com.
If I go to facebook with Firefox, both of these two rules will match. I was using Firefox, so I was Surfing, I was also on facebook so I was also on Social network sites.
When this happens, MT will show both Surfing and 'Social network sites' autotags. Timeline will be split and one bit will show Surfing the other one Social network sites.
If you check 'Match only first', MT will take the order of autotags, so how you see them on the left side of Autotag editor and it will apply them one at the time.
So lets say Surfing is the first. In this case this time will go to Surfing and it will stop there, never even try matching Social network sites because it already found a match.
Does this make more sense?
