[support] Building website with POI (Points of Interests)

[Afan Pasalic]

I don't want to be rude but: Duh! :-D

In View, I'm assuming the place to sort nodes is "Sort criteria", but I 
don't see anything I can use it? There is not "Node weight" or 
something? Just "Taxonomy: Weight" - and I don't use Taxonomy :-(
