I took an hour trying to tweak the categories on my site. This is how I’m taking my break today. Nerdy, no?
Realization
I realized my “Industry Commentary” category was mostly about content and media. I mean, seriously… what was I thinking when I labeled that category… half of my stuff on this blog should be commentary, anyway.
Added a “Gadgets” category. I know I’m going to be needing it…
Removed “Blogging and Writing”. I wanted to post on things about how to write essays and little grammatical things I picked up along the way… but seriously, me? Write? Please.
I started adding descriptions to every single one of my categories. It’ll help me keep on top of what goes where… and when I need to start renaming/splicing/merging categories.
I swear, there was a time when I was stressing how I needed to lay out the foundation for every single category I would cover on the blog. What a waste of time that was.
But I think there should be a tool… with a really nice UI that can help me with recategorizing and tagging of multiple posts in WordPress. I’ll get searching on that. Or better yet… it’s… another project idea?
