Retention

Been trying to categorize all of my old posts. I've done about 150 in the last 12 hours.

It takes time because it's a web-based interface. Because I read the post again to give it a title.

The Typepad import tool grabbed words from the first line to give a title to all of my old Blogger posts—which were never titled originally.

It's kind of fun, in a way. Knowing what I meant to say when I wrote the posts.

Then I can make the titles witty, or I can make them part of the flow of the post, or use the title to elucidate what would otherwise be obtuse.

Because I eschew obfuscation.

But I digress.

What I mean is, it's a way to recreate what I had written. Polish.

But I have edited nothing, save grammar, spelling and the like. Not the words.

Although I can't help wanting to add layers of meaning.

It's just my way.

The secondary result of this work is that you can see more and more what the categories really mean to me. And maybe, if you've been a long-time reader, figure out what I was really saying. And perhaps to whom.

But maybe you already knew.

When parts of posts disappear, I feel like I've missed something...
