As part of my reconfiguring process, I’ve updated the permalink structure. What this means is that the URLs of a specific post will now indicate the date and the title of the post instead of the old way which was pretty ugly (in fact it’s called in the industry ‘ugly permalinks’ ). This new way is known as ‘pretty permalinks’. I’m all for that.

This means that a post which was once found by the address http://phoenixwolfray.com/?p=388 can now be found by going to http://phoenixwolfray.com/2008/02/06/back-to-our-program-in-progress/

The new way is longer, but more informative; as you can see, it makes it easy to find old posts as long as you know the date, and it makes searching the archives infinitely simpler, especially since the post title shows in the URL.

And not to worry, the old links still function fine.
