Thanks for the useful input and suggestion. I'll try and incorporate tagging (although I'm not sure if it would be a good idea to do away with categorization altogether - any other thoughts on this?).

I'm sticking with my initial suggestion. If you want to make certain tags mandatory then those could be the ones you might categorize by so that you have a way of letting people explore your content through browsing. Still, the decision is easier than choosing your categorization criteria and then populating all of the values.

Just look over recent ShowHN entries and imagine what categories to sort each entry in will show that your categories have to be so broad as to be useless, or too specific. e.g. "Development", "Promotion", "SaaS". At least with my own project I know what tags to suggest: "git", "DNS". But where I'd file it otherwise I'd have no idea.
