While properly implementing a tag space may be slightly more
difficult[1] than other methods for some developers or organizations, I
think the benefits far, far outweigh the cost. In the context of
discussing how to represent tag in Atom, I recently blogged[2] that
"basically, tag spaces are what make tags truly portable across the
Web." By deploying a tag space you're following existing practice and
helping your users discover more of your content.
