 * I’m looking to use the functionality of a blog to serve as a portfolio. Each 
   post would be a new project, using categories to categorize the services used
   in that project. Upon posting a project, an article would be created in the ‘
   portfolio’ and a link to the project would be created in the relevant service
   pages.
 * I plan on using the following pages
 * Portfolio page – Listing all projects.
 * Project page – Each project would have an individual page, with links to the 
   services used in that project.
 * Services page – Listing all services.
 * Service Page – Each Service would have an individual page, with links to the 
   projects which use that service.
 * The site will also include a blog which is used for the normal purpose.
 * ———–
 * If anyone could briefly suggest how they might do this, or provide links to sites
   which currently use a system like this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

 * Might consider a category for Projects and other category(s) for other blog posts,
   and use tags or custom fields for the services
 * Portfolio page – List all posts belonging to the Projects category
 * Project page – For each project, use single.php to display and present tags/custom
   fields
 * Services page – Present list of tags or list of custom fields.
 * Service Page – A ‘tag archive’ and or ‘custom field’ archive. If using custom
   fields, need a plugin such as scribu’s Custom Field Taxonomies.
