I found this via the Leaky Cauldron and HPANA. JKR has updated her 
site. Get a load of the Wizard of the Month!

Why is it that the more JKR tells us, the less we know?

I've copied a portion of her comments on spells from this site:

>>>>>>Hexes:
Has a connotation of dark magic, as do jinxes, but of a minor sort. I 
see 'hex' as slightly worse. I usually use 'jinx' for spells whose 
effects are irritating but amusing.

Curses:
Reserved for the worst kinds of dark magic.<<<<<<<<<

"Connotation of dark magic? Connotation???"  Is there is such a thing 
as being a little dark? So, now we get to start the discussion, "What 
is Dark Magic?" all over again.
