How to Choose Blog Categories
Clearly I don’t know the answer to this one yet, as this is still early days for the blog. What I’ll do is list the categories that I anticipate having.
- blogging - that’s this category, about the blog itself and blogging in general
- osx - I’ve recently acquired a computer and yes, it’s a mac. So I’ll continue poking under the hood and reporting back on the coolness and frustrations of it all. This will also serve as a reference so that I don’t have to chase all over the interweb when I forget how I did something.
- geekery - I’m thinking of getting a whole (albeit virtual) server and configuring it from scratch. You could follow along.
- food - mmm, both cooking and eating
- money - business, finance, investing, and building wealth. Time to share what I’ve learned, and to help you (and me, too) along a path to a better life.
- jfdi - How I get stuff done, things I’ve tried that didn’t work, motivation.
- evolution - how to build a better you, while I’m building a better me.
Each of these might spin off into a separate blog, depending on our collective enthusiasm for the topic. In fact, that’s why I intend to have only one category for each post.
Note that categories are separate from tags. I intend these categories to form a neat partition of the posts, meaning that no single post is in more than one category, and that every post has a category. This will make it easier if I decide to redirect them to their own blog later on.
