Jan 27, 2012 at 17:29 comment added music2myear I didn't say it was the only reason, just the usual reason. Perhaps I'm more familiar with the blogging purpose of tags. Blogs use Categories to associate something to a category, and Tags are used to tell search engines, which already know what is "in" the article, about other relationships which might not be as obvious. There is certainly some overlap between the two, and in SE it's probably a combination of the two purposes.
