New Archives access

I fixed up the bar at right so that you can see posts listed by their categories, as well as the "master archive" page. A lot more could be done to make the individual archives more well-organized. That's in progress.

You can see all the posts dropped into categories. To clarify how all this stuff works, when I make a post entry, I choose the category I'd like it in. A crucial advantage of this software--compared with the old system--is that I can place a single post under multiple categories, like Minnesota and Music or Neo-Cons and Iraq. The problem is that most of my old posts don't have more than one category entered, and the interface to add another category onto a post is quite cumbersome. (So a post referencing Iraq and Neo-Cons might only be listed under Iraq) It would almost be faster to do it by talking to the database directly. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or observations about how I should set up the archives.
