Tags vs. Categories

So the new version of Wordpress supports tagging, which is cool I guess, but I already have categories. What’s the difference?

I’ve been looking around and can’t really find a definitive answer, so here is how I will use them for the time being. I will use categories for broad organization, then narrow it down with tags. I think.

Sure tags help with Technorati searches and whatnot, but I still don’t understand it. If anyone else does, please ’splain for me.

By the way, you are reading this and I’m at PodCamp SoCal. Full report to follow later in the day or tomorrow. Check back!
