Where’s That Blog Post I Remember Reading?

A quick and easy way to search

Do you remember reading something on a particular blog, but can't remember the specific post? In the comments section of this post, Alan asked about finding links to particular posts. In response, Rachel provided a suggestion that I have found so wonderfully helpful that I wanted to share it.

Using the example of this Living Single blog, you would type your search term and then this:

site:http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/living-single

After I first posted this, John A. offered another great suggestion in the comments section; type your search term and then this:

inurl:living-single

Another guide to previous Living Single posts (and other essays I've published in places such as the New York Times, Forbes, the Chronicle of Higher Education, and the Huffington Post) is Single with Attitude: Not Your Typical Take on Health and Happiness, Love and Money, Marriage and Friendship. It includes 89 essays organized into 18 topics.

Something else I can do is to cross-post all of my Living Single posts at my personal blog, All Things Single (and More), then you could just click on the Categories that show up on the right-hand side to find what you are looking for. But that would mean that subscribers would get alerts about several hundred new posts, which could be annoying. Feel free to weigh in on this possibility. (Of course, you can also search on this Psych Today site.)

Sometimes I get inquiries from people looking for writings on specific topics. I've responded to them with lists of relevant posts, so I'll share those here, too (below). I put most of these together before I had Rachel's great suggestion, so you may find even more examples of interest using her method.

The relevant links are listed under these topic headings:

  • ECONOMIC ISSUES
  • TAXES
  • WORKPLACE ISSUES
  • SINGLE LIFE AT DIFFERENT AGES
  • SINGLE MEN
  • SOLITUDE
  • FRIENDSHIP

  • SINGLE PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN

  • SINGLES IN ADVERTISING AND MARKETING

  • CALLING OUT SINGLISM: THE RISKS AND THE REWARDS

  • SINGLE FOR THE HOLIDAYS
