You may have noticed the introduction of tags here at bitterpill.org. I spent a few hours this weekend moving over to a new weblog tool. I know that many will exclaim, "Why have you discarded that crappy piece of software that you piecemealed together and have basically abandoned for the past two years?" Why indeed. Yet, with so many mature software packages out there to allow easy blogging, and me with so little resources (read: no desire) to add any new functionality to the old system, it seemed logical to move on...to let the old system go. It's me blogging software, not you. We've grown apart, and we just don't seem to communicate anymore. Not to mention the sexy little blog software that works at the dry cleaner down the street. She understands me.
With the new wares we get tagging...ain't it a peach. I've been tagging old posts when the mood hits me, and someday soon, or maybe never, I'll have tagged up the whole pill. In light of this new tagging functionality, I hacked up a little add-on code to display all tags in a format I like to describe as a "Tag Smog" (disclaimer, graphing idea stole shamelessly [maybe a bit of shame] from jason).
