Content categories and Google Drive

I’m building on my content web, which is a bit nebulous, and not really a great organization tool. It’s time to get my butt in gear and start producing content. I want to have 35 posts written and ready to go at launch, and I want them to fit into a variety of categories.

So I started a spreadsheet (of course… if you’ll learn anything about me, it’s that I love spreadsheets and use them for everything). Across the top, I listed potential large blog categories, and then underneath, smaller categories. It’s based on my web, so many of those ideas are identical.

The idea here wasn’t to come up with new categories (although I did think of some), but more to better organize my thoughts into a usable system. A web is a great way to get ideas onto paper, but not the best way to reference them later.

This is a good chance for you to see how I use Google Drive for basically everything. All my organization, post drafts, outlines, branding, etc. are house in Drive. In another post, I’ll explain that organization system!
