Edit Postings, New Navigation, and Flat Categories

Things have been pretty busy at my real job lately,   but I finally got a chance this weekend to roll out some of new features that have been in the works.  

Firstly, some of you had requested the ability to edit your existing postings. You can now find an edit link below each of your postings. (Eventually I'd like to add wikipedia style version tracking too, but that's low on the list of priorities right now).

The "Add a New Posting" process has also been improved, and should allow you to add content a lot quicker.  You can now add links to external webpages that you find interesting, and link to videos instead of just embedding them.  

One of the biggest new changes is the hierarchy of categories has been flattened.  This was done largely to make adding new postings easier, but also because the old multi-level category system was not really practical (some of the subcategories should have belonged in multiple parent categories, a lot of subcategories didn't have much content, etc).

As it goes with programming, there are likely to be some glitches that come along with the changes, so please let me know if anything's not behaving right.
