Reorder files to alphabetize. Update titles to be more conducive to quick scans.
The posts have been re-dated to not only alphabetize them within their categories, but also to make them easier to find with their directory. Files marked 2008 are active post files. Files marked 2009 are outdated or are redirects to newer files. Files have been renamed to match their title for easier updating.

+<p class="intro">Please note that config changes will only affect future commits. Existing commits will retain the info they were committed with. Also, the environment variables <code>GIT_COMMITTER_NAME</code>, <code>GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL</code>, <code>GIT_AUTHOR_NAME</code> and <code>GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL</code> will override git-config settings if they are defined.</p>
