Index

libraryMaybe it’s the librarian in me, or maybe the compulsive-obsessive organizer, but I like having a nice index of the content.

I suppose, as times goes by, eventually the Index will need a Meta-Index.

(There is something along those lines. See the Book Reviews, Movie Reviews, and Pomes pages.)

Sidebands

Originally intended for posts tangent to one of the main topics (such as would appear on the list above) or some kind of parallel — typically technical — thread of posts related to a main topic. Or they might be unrelated highly technical post, ones too geeky for most readers.

As it turned out, it was too much bother keeping straight what was main and what was sideband, so most meaty stuff ends up being main. I still use this channel for the really geeky ultra-technical stuff.

(See the Sidebands Index page for a list of all Sideband posts.)

Brain Bubbles

These were intended for the ‘small passing thought’ posts that were originally considered Sidebars. More often they’ve ended up as collections of even smaller thoughts or current event references.

(See the Brain Bubbles Index page for a list of all Brain Bubbles posts.)

Categories

You can also find posts by Categories. You’ll see a list of them over on the right under File Space. Hover over any Category to see a little pop-up that (very briefly) describes its nature. Click on any Category to see all posts filed under it.

You can also list posts by Category using a URL following this template:

https://logosconcarne.com/category/category-name/

You must replace category-name with the appropriate category, all lowercase, with any spaces replaced by hyphens.

Tags

You can also search by Tags. You’ll found a cloud of them under Wyrd Cloud. Just as with Categories, click on one to see all posts containing that Tag.

Also as with Categories, you can use a URL following this template:</p >

https://logosconcarne.com/tag/tag-name/

Again, the tag-name must be lowercase with spaces replaced with hyphens.
