Hi Chao,

The way I understand it, TODO states have a flow/sequence to it.
Although they need not always be sequential, e.g. a type TODO keyword,
still they have a flow of NOTDONE --> DONE associated with them.
Whereas, a tag is probably more of a concept related to filing or
categorising and don't as such represent a work flow of any kind.

I hope that helps.

PS: If anyone feels they can improve on the above or if I am wrong
about something, please feel free to correct me. :)
