RIGHT. I have half fixed it. I will add some words in the “New to Wordpress” page

Yes, I am trying to weed out multiple title clashes into easily negotiated threads when I see them.

Who Built The Moon reminds me I never did the Science Of Astrology.

also to think about: the dead-end trapped-in-a-related-swamp effect?

some of these pile-ups are well numbered (cf WHO BUILT THE MOON, which you can negotiate the whole of), but others are just a cofusin wleter of the same title for difft posts

yes, i like the semi-randomness, and the related stories titled eg “The”

“no related stories” is sometimes amusing in a comedy-timing punctum way but i think we should probably try and break through to further relatedness

there is a case perhaps for um “exploratory” use of keywords?

well that’s the theory, i just tried it (hope you don’t mind) by editing this article and there is still something rough in the wordpress code that didn’t seem to work too well there.

Oooh!

I think keywords would spoil the beautiful madness somewhat tho.

I’ve been meaning to explain about the related articles for some time. At first I wasn’t sure how it worked myself, but I’ve got the hang of it now.

It is the words in the TITLE of the post that are compared with the title/contents of all posts.

However with a fuzzy/non-helpful title you can put anywhere in your post - at the end i suggest - and that will tweak the importatnt words to work out the related articles. so in the case of this article putting in “marketing” and “tail” would get better related articles (perhaps) than “like” and “mouse”
