After more than nine years of blogging, I have finally begun using tags on my blog posts. I added them over the weekend. You’ll see them at the bottom of each post.

And with the help of the Simple Tags plugin for WordPress, I can search old posts for certain keywords and automatically tag those that are relevant. I have nearly 5,000 posts on this blog, so I don’t think I’ll be able to tag all of them, but for all future posts I’ll be using tags, so if you’re reading a post, you’ll be able to find my other posts that discuss similar content. For example, here are all my posts about my favorite movie, Back to the Future.

Now I just need to remember to use tags whenever I write a new post.
