Exactly, because not all visitors/readers are bloggers like us. So you actually modify the category IDs every time that happens?

Yep. Directly from the database. XD

tma ka rin.. when time comes when i need to build a site which will be having a bigger audience.. siguro that would be the right time for me to use those tags again..

^_^

Most blog visitors don’t really care if you have one since all that care about is that entry itself.

@Hiro: Glad to hear that accumulating hundreds of tags doesn’t seem to bother you at all. Liberty, alright. 🙂

Mine now are pretty much useless- they say Japanese English Deutsch. XDDD
And it’s not public, so no one other than me can see it.

It’s really, I guess, all up to you how you use it. I just put the most random of the things EVER for my LJ, and I know I should clean it up, but I just use the liberty to do whatever I want and accumulate hundreds of tags.

But congrats on making the final decision!!! 8D

Using tags and not using tags are of your own choice. Don’t let your visitors dictate what you need or do not need to put on your blog. It is your freaking blog anyway. =P

In a way, I prefer not to use tags because I don’t need it. Most blog visitors don’t really care if you have one since all that care about is that entry itself. That’s one the reasons. The other one is that they mess up my tables. I might looked messed us but I wanted every single thing in my site orderly in the fashion that I wanted it to. The same thing applies even to my databases, tables and the data themselves. I wanted them to follow a chronological and ordered numbering. And tags simply messes up my category IDs. XDI hate seeing my first 3 categories as 1,2,3 and the next one at 42. XD
