Re: August 10, 2001
Doc, I am not moving away from dates to subjects. I am moving away from a daily set of unstructured items to a daily set of structured items. I still have a "daily" link that is maintaned by Manila. All of the items I post in a given day can be referenced by the fixed link. For example, today's link would be: http://www.craigburton.com/2001/08/11. What I have done is add another layer of structure and created a category for each post in a day. The category is referred to as a "department." I can have as many departments as I want, I am starting out with five basic departments to see if that can cover matters. A department also has a link. For example the "feature" department is: http://www.craigburton.com/newsItems/viewDepartment$Feature What this does is create a much more structered (mabye too structured) organization of the blog. I don't know if I can go back and categorize what has been already posted yet, I am sure I can and it wouldn't be too hard as I only have a hundred messages or so. You have 993, that would be more work. All of the links you and others have made to my blarchive still work. A side effect of this approach is that I don't have to flip the home page. I can also queue items up and post tham when appropriate. I like both of these features.
