But you can set some new BB tags for forum needs, am I thinking right?
Yes. But AFAIK you will always end up with pretty much static HTML fromed from the BBcode. So implementing new and cool BB tags is not going to do much for you that you couldn't do wit HTML, too.

Oh, and of course HTML keeps developing, too ...

How and where can new BB tags can be created?
That would depend on the application you are using. A forum will have a parser somewhere that translates the storec BBcode to HTML when a message is displayed.
