If you are using WordPress 2.8, might I recommend Simple Taxonomies, which has a few of the features I’ve been waiting for better APIs to implement.

Download Latest Version (1.2.5) Now

WordPress provides a lot of functionality geared towards the use of generic “taxonomies”, such as Tags and Categories, but no way to manage the taxonomies themselves. The Custom Taxonomies WordPress Plugin allows you to:

• Create custom taxonomies with admin-set names and slugs for posts, pages, or links
• Define whether or not to accept hierarchies, descriptions, multiple selections, and/or tag-style entry
• Manage each taxonomy’s terms in a full AJAX-interface
• Assign terms to posts, pages, and links just as you would with categories and tags
• Setup permalinks
• Add widgets for your taxonomies into your site
• NEW: Term Clouds!!
• NEW: Support for single-selection taxonomies!!
