You know, my efforts to remove older entries and put them in plain old static HTML Archive pages? Well, I spent today and last night undoing all that. I&#8217;ve restored all those older entries back into the database. This at least should make those older entries searchable, alongside the rest of my entries.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; I also got rid of those old Food, TV, Gadgets, and Movies pages. They were mainstays here, staples for the site which had been in existence before I&#8217;d even known about &#8220;blogging&#8221;; but now all their content has been absorbed into the main database. And, so I can still maintain those &#8220;four basic food groups&#8221; (as it were), I&#8217;ve begun breaking everything into categories. I should have established that practice from the outset, as soon as I started using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmachine.com\">pMachine<\/a>, because now I&#8217;m forced to do it retroactively. Nevertheless, I&#8217;ll be marking most entries by category now, and you&#8217;ll probably start seeing little &#8220;symbol bugs&#8221; soon. I do not recommend looking for stuff <i>by<\/i> category though, since it will probably take forever for such a list to load.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Speaking of load times, now that the links have increased for archived months I&#8217;ve moved them out of the old &#8220;Archives&#8221; box and put them in their own column, at the very end of the page. Hopefully, if\/when a page load times-out (as happens so frequently at my workplace), the bulk of the page should still load.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; Sound good?<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; <u>P.S.<\/u>: There will be a few more changes showing up too, in the near future. I&#8217;ll probably be moving the &#8220;Random Photo&#8221; box to its own photoblog soon. Not only are photoblogs becoming more prevalent (which of course means I want one too), but I took <a href=\"https:\/\/wastinaway.net\/shortfatguy\/2003\/03\/02\/camera-poll\/\">everyone&#8217;s advice<\/a> and got myself a new camera!\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Remember all that work I did a couple weeks ago, to try and decrease the size of my database and relieve load times for my page?
