I can see that Technorati can help with a variety of topics, research, news updates, etc. It will help to maximize reading time by narrowing the amount of time it takes to find what you are interested in at the moment.
Tagging can be helpful because not everyone categorizes or organizes things the same way in their minds. I might think of something as one tag and someone else think of it as a different one, but we can both end up accessing the same information.
An example might be two people looking for information on the koala. One person might think specifically, "marsupial", while someone else might think more generally, "Australia". Even though it was approached through different tags, the two people will probably be able to find the same information on the koala.
I think "tagging" can be very helpful, but as with anything one reads, take it with a grain of "thought"! One person's tag may not lead you to what you are looking for, so brainstorm another possible tag or two as a backup.
