As far as I can see, each blog post is a database record (or collecion of), and so adding categorization of individual posts (a feature I would look forward to and use) would involve putting a table in the database - a link table, so multiple categories can be assigned to post items (it is a many-many relationship). As far as I can see, there is a blog post ID, and a category ID, which are what you would have in the links table. The same method can probably be applied to calendar items.

Anyway - well done for the work so far. It is most definately a direction I like.
