From 75e24fdca4e70e751332c491a4b60a712e12c9e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cameron McEfee Date: Fri, 27 May 2011 16:25:16 -0700 Subject: 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 Files marked 2009 are outdated or are redirects to newer files.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. --- _posts/2011-02-18-be-social.markdown | 95 ------------------------------------ 1 file changed, 95 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 _posts/2011-02-18-be-social.markdown (limited to '_posts/2011-02-18-be-social.markdown') diff --git a/_posts/2011-02-18-be-social.markdown b/_posts/2011-02-18-be-social.markdown deleted file mode 100644 index 47a7c62..0000000 --- a/_posts/2011-02-18-be-social.markdown +++ /dev/null @@ -1,95 +0,0 @@ ---- -layout: default -title: Be Social -description: Follow a friend.
