And now witness the power of this fully armed and operational Index!
Yes, if you take a gander up top, you’ll see a new Tab indicating that I finally got around to adding an Index of Reviews for the site. I’ve been working on this on and off for a while, often procrastinating because I thought the use of Tags was good enough and that an Index would be somewhat redundant. I also assumed that I would have more time to work on it in the inevitable slow times that I’ve had in previous years, but truth be told this year has been going full guns from the start and I don’t see any slowing down.
In the end, I pushed through with this pet project mainly because it helps me get a better idea of what parts of my collection I’ve already looked at and some stuff that I can still feature. For example, I was really surprised how much DC and Marvel is here and how little Star Wars and Ghostbusters is represented. Granted, I know my Star Wars collection is only a fraction of what it once was, there’s still lots of goodies sitting in totes that have yet to see the light of day. As for Transformers… I knew there would be a crap load of Transformers, but it showed me that there’s still a lot more to get to.
I’ll likely be tweaking the categories a bit as I go on. In the meantime, feel free to dig in and enjoy.

I want to do something like this with my music reviews, but have zero energy to do it. Well done though. This will come in handy…
Ah, do it!!! It was a pain in the ass, but it was something to do while listening to some podcasts and music.
You have about 1000 reviews, I have about 800 posts — how long do you think it took you total?
I have been saying for 6 months that I was going to hire a temp to do it 🙂
Well, I started just dicking around with it on and off for a couple of weeks. Then I started doing a little each day for a couple of weeks and then Thursday and Friday I just muscled through the rest of it.
Any tips? Did you use your “Posts” screen to find the articles and links you needed?
I just started on my most recent post and went backwards. I also did it directly onto the Page Editor, whereas I usually write my stuff in MS Word first. And I drank a lot of Jameson while doing it. 😉
I usually write directly onto the page editor so I’m good with that, keeping multiple tabs open for linkages etc…
Might be fun actually, just listen to music while I work without having to write about the music 🙂
Great! Very clear and useful.
