Index
You may have noticed off to the right side of the page that I have started an index. I read once that one should never write their own index (Cat's Cradle, Kurt Vonnegut, as if that's a reliable source), however, I'm tired of linking back to previous posts when I reference someone.
This is very much a work in progress. First I have to create all the stupid pages, then I have to update my template, and then I have to maintain them. In addition to that, I think I'm going to go back and update the links to point to the index. Hopefully that'll make things easier. Not that anyone looks at the historical stuff, anyway. I suppose this is a vain hope that when someone stumbles across my blog they like what they see so much that they read the archives.
So, if you like the index, feel free to use it. If I'm missing someone/something that has been spoken of more than once and you'd like to see them/it in the index let me know and (if I agree with you - hey, it's my blog) I'll see about including them/it.
Oh, lastly, my goal is to create one or two index pages every time I post, so don't expect them to all appear one day. Slowly but surely wins the race.

Index, schmindex. Sounds like a lot of effort to me.
You could use this time far more profitably. I never have enough time to spend just staring off into space - would you be interested in picking up some of my back log and doing some staring off into space for me?
