Tags Manager for Visual Studio Team Services

With a recent job change I found my self in a role of sole ownership of a few applications (both web and desktop) with no source control, no requirements, no backlog of product requests etc.  Anyway, so I quickly created an account with VisualStudion Team Services, the new and improved TFS in the cloud.  I uploaded all the source and got to work setting up sprints and backlog items.

With Tags Manager you can now easily manage your work items tags (rename, merge and delete them).  There are plenty of details, instructions and more found in the link above.
