Categories vs Tags

WordPress.com lets you put tags on your posts. I pretty much tag everything. I never did on Blogger, so almost everything that was imported from the old blog will be tag free.

When I imported the Blogger stuff it took the few tags I used (cancer being the important one as I tagged the posts relating to my mother’s illness) and made them categories. I didn’t want to break down my posts into distinct categories, so up until now I haven’t made any use of them.

Today though, I found a function in the Tools menu that lets you convert tags to categories and vice versa. I gave it a shot.

This is the first ever post entered directly into the iphoneography category. I can see how blown away you are. The conversion routine said it would keep my old tags. I really hope that’s the case.

Anyway… Here is Patches getting her belly pet.
