–Nov 16 Today, I’m happy because I have found a way to create a blog archive in one step. On my wordpress.org blog, the easiest in the world, here’s what you do. Click on Add New Page and type this:
…that’s all. Now you have a nice list of every post you’ve written, easy to scroll through, for others and you! I put my page on my navigation bar. Now I will be able to copy it to MS Word and divide them all into categories.
Lower 40, this morning, walking the dog.
Neat. 🙂
–Nov 22 Update: As of today, I have finished a bit of blog housekeeping and categorized all the posts here in my new Blog Archive. One added benefit for me is that I now see what I have spent a lot of time recording and what I haven’t touched on at all.
