If you found the <label> tag useful, check out the <fieldset> and <legend>
tags as well. They are not only good for accessibility but look quite good
as well.
These two links explain them in a bit of detail.

I have never heard of the <label> tag. This article is quite useful. It
is
true - every detail matters once you get to a certain level of web
development.
I guess the <label> tag also mets conformance standards since the text that
used to float around without a semantically defined purposenow can be
inside
the tag, which defines it to label the input element.
