As most of you know, a blog is unique, more fluid than a website usually is, and that's great.
On Instant History, however, there's one limitation, and this post addresses it. Namely, grouping these posts by archive dates or even categories is not the easiest way to see what's available. The archives are random, based on the order I post, and the categories may get too big eventually and will be out of chronological order anyway.
So -- using the permalinks attached to each post -- I'll use this particular post to let you see what's in our library.
This is the one place where you can see the posts as they exist in calendar chronology. Just click on any one of them and start exploring.
