Meta: Categories in Sidebar

I've just reorganized the sidebar to this blog:
- Separated blog tools and links to their own section.
- Added ALL-CAPS headers to each section: EXPLORE (this blog), LINKS (resources) and NETWORK (Blog Rolls, back-links, and so on)
- Moved EXPLORE (this blog) to the top, just under the profile, followed by LINKS (resources).
- Added a del.icio.us tag "cloud" labelled Categories to the top of the EXPLORE section.
- Labelled the Technorati splot as "Search".

Please let me know what you think of the new tools and organization. In particular, let me know of any categories you would find useful. I've only just started tagging the entries, so it's going to take me a while to catch up. Trying to find an entry you read on this blog? What keywords would you search by? Those would make good categories for me to add to the "cloud".

I thought the categories thing was pretty cool, but when I saw it wasn't Technorati, it deflated me a bit. It would probably be more work for me than continuing my links manually...

I'm going to have to play with it a bit on your blog to form a better opinion of it, but I must confess, it gave me a severe case of technology envy at first blush.

BTW, a "slam" is a circuit board in the office of the service provider. I have DSL. Now you know everything I do.
