I've already made a few changes lately regarding Labels. I added a listing by frequency using a drop down menu while at the same time listing Labels alphabetically. I'm not sure if this is Label-overkill for my visitors or if it makes things easier for them to navigate. According to my StatCounter log, it has made a difference in whether or not someone clicks posts based on a Label.
I also have the Table of Contents set up, but I'm not sure how many actually use it. The TOC is worth using if you want to browse my blog without loading entire posts or new pages. I recommend using the TOC over any of my other Label links.
The new change I just made should help viewers in the long run. Normally when you click on a Label such as techniques, the page that loads will list all 22 posts including the post content. If there are more than a few posts for one label as in the case of the label techniques, it will be difficult for someone to browse through all of the posts. I modified my template code to only show the post titles and dates and leave out the post content. I'll pay attention to the StatCounter log to see if people visit more posts as a result. My goal is to help visitors find what they are looking for in a timely manner before they decide to resort back to a completely new Google search.
