Simplified example:

@user {
  "alice": tag => 'user';
  "bob": tag => 'admin';
}

# Realize users tagged as admins, but not other virtual users
User<| tag == 'admin' |>

Selection predicates may use other resource properties, too, not just 
tags.  See http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_virtual.html 
for (a bit) more information.
