I've got about 100 posts left to Tag and I've noticed Blogger's main Edit Comments page allows you to Tag a bunch of posts all at once...except without exploding an entry, the title doesn't always tell me what it's about, especially when you're looking at a 2 y/old post.
Also I can only apply 1 tag at a time to multiple posts and that seems counterproductive. I'd need to explode every post, look at the first Tag, then go through every post to see if that Tag applies to that post, if so, check it, do that for every Post, then apply that first Tag. Uncheck every post, review every post with respect to the second Tag, apply second Tag, uncheck every post, and so on.
I think it's going to be faster to review every post, apply relevant Tags, then republish it.
I don't know if that means I'm about to spam the Readers of anyone who subscribes to my Blog or not, or if it doesn't count for Edits and re-publishes.
If it does, I apologize in advance for the next 100 or so spammed Posts just for me to get my Tags up-to-date.

I'm kind of bummed that you weren't writing about the urban art of "tagging", or graffiti art.
Good luck with your organizational efforts! I keep ignoring my impulses to do the same to my older posts...
Sorry about that, Faith. I'm kind of partial to Graffiti Art myself. Tagging though? Not so much.
Mainly because when we first moved into our house we had a battle with a neighborhood Tagger who felt compelled to scribble his name (or something) on the white board over our letterbox. After I painted over his scrawl a couple of times, usually within hours of him hitting it, he stopped tagging us. I'd still see his work up and down the street, but our letterbox remained forever Tag-free.
Now if he'd possessed some form of style, used color paints instead of a black marker, and actually done something artistic, I would have been inclined to leave his work alone. But just tagging? No thanks.
I have a couple of friends who were into graffiti art. Neither of them were actually "taggers" by that definition, though.
One of them painted graffiti all over his car and his parents' garbage can. They turned out pretty cool, actually.
I've been resisting the urge to paint my car. I'm no graffiti artist, but I do paint, and I have more than a few ideas for decorations.
