Now using labels

Okay, I know this feature has been around for a while, but I've only recently come on board with the whole idea.

Even though I don't have a whole lot of posts yet, you probably know by now that I have a few different topics of interest.

It occurred to me that a lot of folks visiting my site don't have all those same interests, and may not want to wade through all of the content looking for those items that actually interest them.

I was considering creating separate blogs for each of my interests, and then it occurred to me that blogger has this awesome feature called labels.

With labels, rather than having multiple blogs, I can simply label each blog entry as a certain type, and if you only like a particular type of topic, then you can always filter it by that label. Example: http://theintrospectivemind.blogspot.com/search/label/Coding

This makes it easy to bookmark, only what interests you.

Now, I've been playing with the RSS feed for this, and it doesn't seem quite a simple. If I am unable to find out how to make this label thing work, I may, indeed, create a separate blog for just my technology related stuff.

Otherwise, I hope this helps folks out.
