Auto attach tags to category when posting?

    I'm looking for a plugin for Wordpress 2.5 where i make a post and it will assign the tags automatically without me inputting them individually.

    In some categories i tend to use quite a lot of tags and every time i post in that category i have to keep inputting the tags.

    Is there anyway to make this easier or a plugin that allows this?

    Thanks a lot.

    Thing is, how will the plugin know what tags to attach?

    I'm sure there is a plugin that allows you to set tags to category so whenever you post in that category, the tags you set will be auto tagged.

    A purist will tell you that the whole point of tagging is for the human to teach the machine what the semantics of the content is about, not the other way around.

    But if the auto-taggers are monitored enough and their accuracy is good, I see no reason not to use them.
