With just this and Bloom Tender you can get infinite mana.

Does anyone else agree with me that this is the BEST COMMON EVAR?

Pemmin's Aura is better on your own creatures, but Freed from the Real can lock down your opponent's creatures in a pinch. It really depends on your deck's strategy.
Me, I use a playset of both for tapping madness.

This card has a lot of potential for craziness, but after playing one in my own deck I also realized its sort of limited, you have to have a creature in play with a tap you want to use multiple times and the blue mana to do it. At worst its sort of like giving a creature vigilance, at best you can reuse somethings tap ability several times which can be very powerful. In all the games I've played with it so far I've only got real use out of it twice though. It is infamous for its infinite mana combos, bloom tender being one, and sachi, orochi leaf caller, together being another. I don't use infinite mana engines though, they aren't fun in my opinion, and they aren't fun for your opponent either, and I don't want to play a card if I'm not having fun doing it. If you simply want the untap instill energy allows you to do it for free but only once a turn.

A card that's not used enough. Has a huge number of uses. I like them with grimoire thief/drowner of secrets. 1 mana for 4 card mill is pretty nice, especially if you have 6 or 7 mana to be spent on it.

Put this on a Tidewater Minion. If you have a land that can give you 2 mana at once, like an Izzet Boilerworks or a Mana Reflection, you can get infinite mana.

Very useful card. At it's most simple it can give some extra utility to or lock down a choice creature. At it's best it can significantly empower a creature with a tapped ability like Merieke Ri Berit or Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. Can also give infinite mana through various combinations if one is into that.
