Perception is reality and in my case I see the action to "pin" something as being decidedly more proprietary than "tagging" something. "tagging" is a now ubiquitous action done across a wide network of sites. Perhaps "pinning" is too and I'm just ignorant of it. -Not an unlikely thing. I also just like the term "sticky" way better. It was immediately what forwardslash called it and it just seemed "right". You want that post to "stick" around longer. Makes more sense to me.

I agree with delta I would hate to cede a useful verb for such a reason. I do like pin. I guess we'll have to take a vote. :)
