Let's say you search for "dengue fever." Your search returns 137 pages, ordered by date, but labeled with a page number. You decide to look at articles written just before and after the Haitian earthquake (Jan 12, 2010). Should you start on page 65, or 125?
That's nuts.You should have the choice of 137 pages with the date of the first post on the page displayed as the page link. Start on page "Jan 7, 2010" and read forward. That's easy. Jakob Nielsen agrees with me, so there! http://rooh.it/PageNumbersMeaningless I can do that with Bruce William's Paginator gem (http:// groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/browse_frm/thread/ 7267090150ef6cc7/5c75c93d0324f356). However, will_paginate is the de facto standard. How do we get semantically-meaningful page links using will_paginate? Or should I stick with the paginator gem?
