Tags or Categories?

Filed under: Technology — mmrobins @ 11:44 am

I’m still trying to figure out how I want to organize my blog content. WordPress comes with built in category support, but I’m finding that I don’t like using categories. I seem to have a tendency to make too many categories when I think that I should just stick to very general categories. I’m trying a plugin called Ultimate Tag Warrior that lets me assign del.icio.us style tags to my posts. I think I like this better since I can add new tags without having to go to a tag management page, unlike categories. This folksonomy style of tagging seems promising to me, but I’ll try it out for a while to see if it works better than categories, or if it just enhances them.
