[wp-hackers] Tagging Images in WordPress 3.0

[Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)]

No sir, I mean in wp-admin (dashboard) -> Media

I have in excess of 300+ images in there and clicking the page by page to 
find the one I want to use for a featured image is a bit of a pain, being 
able to call up just the ones tagged a certain way would certainly be nice.
