MyBlogLog just went live with its new tagging feature – minutes after TechCrunch wrote about it.

Tagging is a great idea for MyBlogLog as it has worked so well for another Yahoo property, Flickr. The feature looks a bit clunky right now – just looks like a table jammed right under your picture and above the sites you author – but this prominent featuring should at least get people using it.

It’s interesting that MyBlogLog plans on using these tags not only to better organize blogs but to weed out spammers as well. If you find a blog which you think is spam you’re supposed to tag it with the word ‘Schmoe’ (for Social Media Optimizer). MyBlogLog will then look into it to see if it’s actually a ’schmoe’ blog.

So far the Yahoo purchase of MyBlogLog has rolled out some nice, though small-ish features for the site. I’m still waiting for it to be fully Yahoo-ified.

Feel free to tag me and my site(s) on MyBlogLog – be kind, I’m no schmoe.
