Keywords vs Tags In Wordpress

Whats the difference between Keywords vs Tags In Wordpress?

Also sine meta keywords don't matter in a website do they matter on a blog?

Meta keywords do not matter to search engines anymore.  Use meta keywords to tell your competitors exactly what keywords you are going for

When I do a wordpress blog I use tags to describe whatever the post is about.  A category would be a broad category, whereas a tag could be 10 words you'd use to describe the post in detail (for example...a post about panama city in March you'd expect to see tags like...college, spring break, panama city, florida, beach, ocean, march).  Many times those tags will end up being the keywords you are focusing on for that page, if you developed your content well.
