The algorithm can work suggesting categories or tags (I just put category as
a generic name because it suggest anything related to categorization,
i.etags, categories, languages, if it is spam or not and so forth). I
have an
example which is an spam
detector<http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/4236.html>which
works with N-grams with great results on my tests.  Personally i don't
the different nor advantage to use tags instead of categories.

I think the main advantage is that the WP will be the "intelligence" to
suggest you tags or categories (or anything else that can be useful) based
on previous posts.
