Could you give a brief description what this does? I could look at the code, but :p "tags redirect" in the title sounds interesting, but not very helpful on what it does.

original entry states: "This will add a component with a dropdown box containing tags on all of the entries a viewer has access to on your journal with the ability to select a tag and view all entries tagged with it."

the technical part is that the action of the form is your journal url.
the box is called "tag" and has s with values of your tags.
therefore, when the form is executed, it attaches a query string argument of "tag=tagname" to your journal url.

example:
http://kunzite1.livejournal.com/?tag=tags
the above is equivalent to http://kunzite1.livejournal.com/tag/tags

if you skip back entries, you'll get:
http://kunzite1.livejournal.com/?tag=tags&skip=20
or:
http://kunzite1.livejournal.com/tag/tags?skip=20

that good? er... that's not brief... XD
