Instead of blogging something - I finally made the update to WordPress 2.3.1 - which included the usual screaming and shouting when something doesn’t work out of the box. It’s certainly not WP’s fault - it’s just the complexity and fuckups created by plugins and custom made code … after several hours of tweaking and bitching (I hope) everything is working again.
New Tags
Every postings gets now tagged with keywords. I try to keep my usage of keywords consistent. But I haven’t finished crawling through 800+ postings and tagging each one of them. The categories for Classic & Asian Art are done - and I think it’s worth the extra effort, because it allows my readers to browse the blog in new ways.
Under each posting (on the single pages) you find a list of all tags related to that entry. You can click these tags and find related posts.
New Related Posts
In addition to the tags you find also related posts under each entry (on their individual pages). I already implemented that function some time ago - but it didn’t work without proper tagging - but we are slowly getting there …
New Tag Cloud
On the right sidebar you find a nice & trendy tag cloud, which shows you the most used tags. If a keyword is used a lot the tag appears bigger.
My Questions to you
I am just wondering if anyone is missing a search function to dig up certain topics, keywords or entries? I removed it a long time ago - but I am happy to implement it again - IF anyone is using it. So please leave a comment if you want it …
Any other functions you are missing? I always happy to improve my blog! Thanks for your input.
PS: If you like or dislike an entry please do me the honors and rate it by clicking the little star under each postings. I am a slut for feedback! 
Update: Found an even better tag cloud plugin with more control. Did some more tagging - which is very time consuming.
