Hiya Steve, The GTD (David Allen) meaning of contexts is that it's the place you need to be to do the task. For example, if a task is 'call Bill' then the context might be 'at phone'. Similarly 'buy nails' would have the context of 'at hardware'.
Tags are more of a way of filtering your tasks. While the phone call above might have a context of 'at phone', it might have several tags like 'Bill', 'clients', 'south', for just a few examples. You could filter by the 'Bill' tag and see all the tasks relating to Bill. you could filter by 'clients' and 'south' and see all the tasks you have related to clients in the southern region. While a task might have one context, it might have several tags. Perhaps don't try and implement both at once. You might waste too much time. Try starting with just contexts and get the hang of that then move on. Hope this helps.
