blog improvements

thinking of incorporating other tags? i've kinda started using technorati. and back in the day =] i knew it was really good.. but then i heard it kinda went downhill. like slashdot. sooo. not sure. but now that i'm looking at it.. wordpress uses its tags with technorati tags =].. so maybe... Categories, Tags, and WordPress Those of you using WordPress, you have the luxury of both worlds, visibly and invisibly. Categories come with WordPress, and you can add as many categories and subcategories as you want to help users find the information they need. WordPress also works with Technorati to ping Technorati and Technorati does use the categories on your WordPress site as tags, which should also make you think twice about using funky category names. In fact, WordPress uses Ping-o-matic to ping a variety of feeds, tags, directories, and search engines automatically when you save your posts. edit: i experienced wordpress today.. and.. quick review: it's a very nice blogging tool.. only that.. there is no html editting which truly irks me. i cant embed music/create massive customizations. i do like the fact it has trackback links and that it has categories. however, right now i can use technorati tags and i do have backlinks. which are alternatives. i feel that wordpress is something definitely really good.. and i like it, you can easily have a very well designed blog. i also like the fact you can have private posts. but i dont know.. blogger does what i need fine. and i dont want to lose all my past secret posts. and another thing it is freaking slooooooooooooow. it went down once, and were some pretty noticeable delays. =[. makes me sad because.. otherwise, it's fantastic. sooo.. perhaps in the far future. like this summer. but to tell you the truth, it's about time.. i lose the past. edit2: tell you the truth, do i really need passwordprotected/private and public posts together in the same location? nah. living a double life is cool. i like wordpress's layout. everything in one spot truly is nice. worst comes to worst, i could just link the damn things altogether.. soo.. "losing posts" isn't truly an issue. but considering wordpress's instability.. i'm gonna stick with blogger. hopefully in the future, it'll get better. and either way.. the way i'll justify my idea of looking crappier.. is that.. i'm about content =P. bwahaha. and i guess.. if i keep a secondary completely silent blog about my insanity, no one will know i'm really f'ed up. and the whole issue of why i even need secret posts comes up here [rant of the day]: recruiters. people get stalked on facebook and on xanga on myspace and every freaking place. and it comes down to.. do i want a job? or... do i want to be myself? right now.. i do have some posts hidden.. but they're probably mentally disturbing posts that even sicken me. bwahaha.. the gears in my corrupt mind are rolling. but okay, honestly.. when i think about it.. a company that fires me for what i write in my blog. is a company i dont want to work for. because really.. i either write 1) good things about the company and why would they fire me then? or 2) bad things. and if it's bad things.. that company probably isn't somewhere i'll be happy at. therefore recruiters, read away. not trying to be arrogant.. but.. because chances are if you don't hire me because of something written here, i dont wanna work there. there are stories of how someone gets fired for saying "work is boring so i chat on aim". hell if i freaking do that, FIRE ME PLEASE.. because that job right there is what is keeping me from reaching my potential. i'm stuck in this job i hate and sucks.. and i do it for no reason because i need money. i'm too damn scared to find the dream job of my life. so i sit there and waste away. FIRE ME. because really, that would help me get my ass in gear. so recruiters... do your thing - read/stalk me.. =] and come back.
