Blog: Nice technique for adding categories to your blog
Unfortunately, Blogger does not give you a way to set up categories at this time. I looked around for ways to get around this and found quite a few people using a technique where they were using del.icio.us and other sites to enable them to "categorize" their content. However, I didn't find that to be an acceptable solution for this blog, and having categories was a must. I was actually about to migrate to a different blogging solution (Movable Type) when I stumbled upon a post on netcf2 where the author has developed a terrific technique for enabling categorization that doesn't require using any other site to help organize the content.
The solution is quite simple and the author has even created a script generator to generate the code you will need to place in your template. His technique is so easy and well documented that anyone can add categories to their blog in only a few minutes.
Definitely check it out if you use blogger and want to add categories:
