 * is there a way to limit this:
 * `<?php the_tags(); ?>`
 * to only show if there are other posts with the same tag?

       <?php
       $tags = wp_get_post_tags($post->ID);
         if ($tags) {
           foreach($tags as $tag) {
             if ($tag->count > 1) {
               echo '' . $title . '<a href="' . get_term_link( $tag->term_id, 'post_tag' ) . '" title="' . sprintf( __( "View all posts in %s" ), $tag->name ) . '" ' . '>' . $tag->name.'</a> is assigned to ' . $tag->count . ' posts.
        ';
             }
           }
         }
       ?>

 * First review [Template Hierarchy](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy)…
   your theme’s index.php or archive.php or category.php are possibilities.
