So if your model is basically:

db.define_table('user', SQLField('name'))
db.define_table('tag, SQLField('name'))
db.define_table('user_tags',
  SQLField('user_id','reference user'),
  SQLField('tag_id','reference tag'))

then
  usertags=db(db.user_tags.user_id==theuserid).select('user_tags.tag')
gives you the tags for theuserid you want.

No joins are required.
Joins are explained in:

has some good "visual explanation" links at the bottom.
