So they can see themselves in photos? So you don't have to look through all of your friends' photos to find which ones you are in and repost them yourself.

Isn't it possible to tag people even if they don't have a FB account?

You can type whatever you want as a tag, although I've never actually seen someone do this.
I guess it could just be used to annotate images, or to recall who's who for your own use, a la how people used to write everyone's names on the back of photos.
