URL Envy
For ages I've been envious of many other bloggers' set-ups, but especially the nice friendly URL schemes that a lot of other people now use. So, starting from today, my website is at alastairs-place.net, rather than the previous www.alastairs-place.net, and you can navigate the articles using the form /yyyy/mm/article_name, or get an index of all of the articles for a given month with /yyyy/mm.
For instance, this article is http://alastairs-place.net/2006/07/url_envy.
Since you've just made this change, consider swapping out the underscores for dashes. Google prefers it:
http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/dashes-vs-underscores/
(I use underscores, and am planning to switch+redirect when I next rewrite the homepage.)
