    taxonomies II

    I am a lover not only of lists but taxonomies as well. So it's kind of a surprise (to me, anyway) that my "Favorites" list in Internet Explorer has always been a huge list of disorganized links. (This is, in part, explainable by the fact that most of the sites that genuinely qualify as my "favorites" are arranged here.)

    But no matter. The point is that tonight, in a desperate attempt to avoid work that urgently needs to be done, I spent a few hours arranging all of the links in the Favorites list into a file hierarchy, which reads as follows:

    Weblogs (contains only weblogs that I'm "trying out," those which haven't yet graduated to the sidebar or the portal; 26 sites)
    Narrative and Narrative Technology (contains mostly sites that haven't yet been archived in this blog or in the old Narrative Technologies blog; 10 sites)
    Sound (the only file which contains subfiles, which are: Review Sites (only those which haven't yet graduated to the portal) Sound Archives, Labels, and Miscellaneous Resources; 11 sites in all)
    Poetry, Lit, Publishing (8 sites)
    Interesting Projects (6 sites)
    Blog This (5 sites, will eventually ideally be empty)
    Magazine-esque (4 sites)
    Tools and Toys (3 sites)
    Politics, Paranoia (2 sites)
    Images (2 sites)
    Academia (2 sites)
    Webculture (1 site)
    Cooking (1 site)
    Chicago-related (1 site)
    Teachable (1 site)
    404 (sites that weren't available tonight but which might just be temporarily down; 10 sites)


    Most of these folders are pretty paltry, but now that the list is more navigable I'll perhaps find it more useful to add sites to it.

    I'd love to know how other people have their favorites arranged. Send your taxonomies to Jeremy [at] invisible-city.com and let me know if I can archive them here in a future post.
