We here at SRC, Inc. like to be fully buzzword-compliant. With that in mind, we are pleased to announce the following:
- Categories are out.
- Tags are in.
Thanks to the super-cool Ultimate Tag Warrior plugin, posts now belong to tags instead of categories. Explore the tag cloud on the sidebar to browse posts by tag. In the post header, click on the » symbol next to each tag, and get a treat!
The plugin features lots of other gimmicks — viewing related posts, combinations of tags, suggested tags, and more. I’ll add more as I get braver about hacking up my template.

September 20th, 2005 at 5:40 pmI love the look and functionality of your site, Jonathon. It’s very nice. I wish I was organized enough to use tags to keep my posts in categories–but I’m not.
Michele sent me to see you.
I also love the automatic html generator you have on the comment box. Very useful.

Nice look to the site…

September 21st, 2005 at 10:31 amUtenzi: Glad you like it! I went through about a dozen WordPress templates before I found one I liked. I know very little about how WordPress works, but I hacked the template just enough to get rid of the annoying bits.
rashbre: That’s part of the usefulness of categories or tags. WordPress pings Technorati for you, using your categories (or tags in my case) as Technorati tags. You shouldn’t have to do anything.
