Taking a look at your site index, I have to say I’m really impressed…the amount of work that must go into something like that would be considerable. I know that I won’t be putting something like that up for my blog, at least not manually…and even then only if it also included splitting the index into multiple pages as part of its automatic process, since having a page with a gazillion links can really tax bandwidth. Until such a time, or unless my readers start to really complain, I’ll be sticking with the archives, categories and search bar method of finding things.

With the portal page to my series posts, I actually got the idea from Hrafnkell’s series about Heathenry a while back…I wanted to spotlight the series on my own blog, but his series was fifteen pages and no single page existed to link them all. So I created one in a ‘spotlight’ post…then I started thinking sometime afterward how nice it might be to link all of my Rune stuff from one page. I did it in my old blog, then did it again in the new blog…amazing how ideas sometimes are born

I’m talking more about a site map, but something more comprehensive. Something like what you see if you click on Site Index under the Pages category on my sidebar. It’s like a book index.

For example, I have a couple of posts on linguistic taboos and deformations. You’d never know to search for it, and there’s no point in making a whole new category to cover two posts. You’d only find it if you happened to scroll down under the “Language” category. That’s probably fine for now, but as the site grows, it’s going to be harder and harder to make it work.

I do like what you did with your Rune series, and I’m considering doing that for “How to Choose a Religion” and other series.

You know what? I’m going to ask my sister-in-law — she’s a librarian.
