Help with course work

Hi

I need to use PSPP to analyse some data for a report I need to write for a
course but I'm having trouble matching up what I want to do with what PSPP
is capable of doing.  I want to analyse the use of tags on a weblog over a
period of years, frequency of each tags use and some sort of representation
of the use of each tag over time.  Below is a very simple representation of
my data in PSPP.  Posts listed on the left column, then date of post and
then codings for tags (if a tag is used 1, if not used 0):

Post Names      date                   tag1     tag2      tag3
--------------------------------------------------------------
Post 1              12-AUG-2013      1          0           1
Post 2              19-JUN-2013       0          0           1
Post 3              06-MAY-2013      1          1           0

How can I show the use of the tags over time - what analysis should I be
focusing on?  Perhaps I'm structuring my data all wrong and should be
putting tags in the left column with simply a post count after date?  Like
so:

Tag Names      date                   Post Count
-------------------------------------------------
Tag1              12-AUG-2013      2
Tag2              19-JUN-2013       1
Tag3              06-MAY-2013      2

Any help much appreciated.
