Thanks to Jeremy Visser for this one, here's a good one to use for it:
<?php if ( function_exists( 'the_tags' ) ) : the_tags('Tags: ', ', ',
'<br />'); endif; ?>

So if you add that in the theme, and then want to use the SAME theme on 
a 2.1 or 2.2 blog, or whatever, it will be safe and won't break 
anything. =) In my theme, I used it in the "postmeta" section of the 
blog. And this is currently being used on my VB blog. Example:

<p class="posted">           
Filed in: <?php the_category(',') ?> | <?php if ( function_exists( 
'the_tags' ) ) : the_tags('Tags: ', ', ',
'<br />'); endif; ?> </p>   

Of course, tag placement is something you'll need to figure out yourself 
then. =)
