blog cleaning
Ever since WordPress added tagging capability, I’ve been slowly going through archived posts and tagging them. For those of you who don’t use WordPress, the original way you could file your posts with through the use of categories. I ended up having 99 categories and no way of archiving those no longer in use. The number of categories made it difficult to file them. They weren’t sorted very well and I’d have to sort through several pages (in a very small window) of categories to file things. In short, posts were often misfiled. I’m much happier with the tagging system.
I also updated the gallery page and it looks really great now.
One thing I’ve noticed about Ravelry is that now I’ve got a tendency to forget whatever wasn’t documented. You know, hats and sweaters that were gifted away without photographs. I’m thinking of my first sweater, a Vogue Knitting top, a dinosaur sweater I made for my cousin Aaron when he was two years old, a hat I made for my grandmother and several things that I only own pictures of in celluloid! Of course, I do own a scanner now. Hmm.
Neat freak? Only theoretically.

Is this the kind of theory which hangs around for so long that we forget there’s anything theoretical about it? Hey, I’m about to gauge swatch for your hat… very excited!

Aha! The new version of wordpress… That explains why your rss feed suddenly has all kinds of cool tags and links in it. I have been slow to upgrad. Actually I forgot about it. X-mas break probably would have been a good time. I use a separate plug-in for tagging and I am scared of importing it into the new wordpress.

Ooh, your blog has gone all dark! : ) The gallery organization looks great, too.
