Are Blogger labels good for anything? I'm thinking of just dumping them and going with Technorati tags instead. Thoughts?

But wait! Earlier tonight, I finally registered Media Nation with Technorati -- and, as if by magic, my Blogger labels were converted to Technorati tags. So it looks as though I might not have to do anything.
