The use of tags for the images on the Flickr website are important because they allow you to share your photos in many different ways.
One article I came across subdivided the tags into different categories:
-'medium' tags - ex.-photos, drawings, paintings
-'genre' tags - ex.-cameraphones, comics, landscapes
-'subject' tags - ex.-live music, animals, "me"
-'name' tags - ex.-name of the person in the photo
-'location' tags - ex.-New York, Los Angeles
A common knowledge of tag categories allows users to more easily and accurately search and share themes and genres. This enhances the social networking capabilities of a photo sharing site such as Flickr
