Tags are simply 'keywords' for that particular post. They are similar to labels or categories, but are more specific. You can imagine them (categories, labels and tags as filters).
Categories or Labels in a blog cover a broad criteria or subject.
Tags is a blog cover a specific criteria or keyword.
Fog e.g., a blog may contain 500 posts on 'Sports' - say 100 each on Golf, Motor Racing, Baseball, Basketball and the rest on others. So the word 'sports' is a category or label.
Within the Baseball posts, there might be 11 posts on 'Yankees' and 10 on 'Mets'. When you tag a post with those 'Tags' or keywords, a reader will be able to quickly see all the posts tagged with Yankees or Mets.
Taking it even further, tagging Yankees posts about Alex Rodriguez with his name would enable a reader to specifically read posts about Rodriguez.

Instructional blogs on Swiss army knives how do you replace the scissor spring?
I wiggled the stub of what was left of the spring until it came out on my Victorinox Handyman. There are different sizes of springs for the different sized knives...the Handyman's a 91mm knife, so it's important to get the correct one. I then lined the spring with the hole with it slightly within it & then pressed the spring to align it with the slot. When this was accomplished I squeezed it into place with a pair of pliers. I found it a piece of cake to do & my eyesight's not what it was.

Can you use photos from www.flickr.com in my blog without their permission?
Flickr allows each photographer to determine what ways they will allow their photos to be used through Creative Commons licenses and Flickr settings. Some photos can be used on blog without explicitly asking the photographer because they already have given you (and anyone else) permission to use their photos through their settings. There are different settings within Flickr that allow you different levels of freedom to use photos.
On the right side of a photo page, there is a "License" section which will tell you the details of how you are allowed to use the photo. It will either say "Some Rights Reserved" or "All Rights Reserved" and clicking on those words will give you the specific details of the license.
As per their community guidelines, if you useany picture from flickr, you must add a link back to the photo's page on flickr.com. It also asks that you don't claim someone else's picture as your own.
Most Freedom - Some Rights Reserved with adaptation allowedSome photos on Flickr allow for you to modify or adapt them. If you want to crop a photo, edit it in Photoshop, use it in a collage, etc. then you will need to find a photo that allows for modification. You can find these photos using Flickr's Advanced Search and checking the boxes for "Only search within Creative Commons-licensed content" and "Find content to modify, adapt, or build upon" at the bottom of the page. Moderate Freedom - Some Rights ReservedIf a photo has a "Some Rights Reserved" license, you have the right to share, copy, distribute and transmit the work, provided that you credit the photographer. Unlike some of the other options, this gives you the right to host the image file on your own website. You can find these photos using in Advanced Search by checking the box for "Only search within Creative Commons-licensed content." Free to Embed - HTML/BBCode EnabledSome photos which are "All Rights Reserved" still allow you to embed the image from Flickr onto your blog. Click on "Share This" above the photo, and click on "Grab the HTML/BBCode" - if you don't see this option listed, it means that the photographer has not allowed it and you will have to use one of the other options discussed below. If it is listed, all you need to do is select the size you want and copy the HTML code into your blog editor (BBCode is generally used for forums). Useable on most blogs - 'Blog It' EnabledIf HTML/BBCode is not enabled, then you have one last method by which you might be able to use Flickr photos on your blog. If your blog is hosted on Blogger, LiveJournal, Manila, Movable Type, Typepad, Vox, or WordPress; is a self-hosted Wordpress blog; is Atom Enabled; or is Meta Weblog API Enabled; then you can tell Flickr the details of your blog and configure how you want to photos you blog to look. Once you have done this, if you are able to click "Share This" on the photo page, then you should see "Blog It" as the last option in the list, and you can select the blog that you want to post the photo on. This disadvantages of this method are that you can only use one photo per blog post and the maximum size you can use is 500px. Cannot Use - Share This not EnabledIf the "Share This" button on top of the photo is not clickable, then you are not able to use the photo at all for free. If the photographer is a member of the Flickr Getty Images program, below the license you will see "Request to license Photographer Name's photos via Getty Images." You can click "Request to license" and send a request, but you will have to pay in order to use the photo.You, as its owner and of course, if you use some free platform like Wordpress.com, then also owner of this platform.
