I'm firmly resolved to use categories more widely now, but I have an important issue giving me pause: Should I load my old posts into categories retroactively, thus breaking links (primarily this would be Google, since I'm not cool enough yet for actual people to link to me), or should I leave them where they are, and make a mess of the miscellaneous top-level category? Beloved readers, I turn to you for advice.
I don't know if you're running on an Apache server, but you could use mod_rewrite to make sure things don't break.
Vorlon is indeed an Apache server, and mod_rewrite is on (the admin was kind enough to enable it for me when I started this weblog, so that I wouldn't have to use the long ugly blosxom URL).
I'd though about mod_rewrite, but I couldn't think of an easy way to do the translation... I guess doing an individual rule for each entry I move wouldn't be that difficult though, especially if I'm clever about it.
A tiny shell script later, I have an mv replacement that automatically echos appropriate lines to my .htaccess file. Thanks for the suggestion :)
Let the organization begin!
