Thanks, John, for such kind words 🙂 You’re a major contributor yourself, you know!

I was thinking today about using categories for the content types and then the tags for conference names, topics of the post and so on. Will definitely talk it over with the designer and see what we come up with – I’ll let you know how it finally gets managed from the backend perspective.

Thank you!

Amy – anytime. It really is my pleasure to help out. You’re a huge inspiration for the nonprofit world. I’m sure you already know that.

In terms of content type (which is a great idea), you could use tags…

John – thank you so much for your feedback! I really appreciate you taking the time to share these notes.

Consider your recommendations about MyBlogLog, Facebook, and other resources DONE!

I really like your point about categories over dates. I also want to use two kinds of categories: content topic, but also content type (news, opinion, case study, presentation, etc.). I hope that will make it much easier for people to hit the site and say, “give me some great examples [click on case studies]” or “let’s read about best practices for community building [click on community building]” and so on.

Everything makes sense – again, I really appreciate you sharing!
