TypePad feature request: pop-up for picking related links

There's still too much manual labor involved in posting blog entries on TypePad. For example, at the end of an entry, I usually add three links to somewhat related, older posts. I think this makes it easier for my visitors to see where I'm coming from.

I've worked with professional web publishing systems that offer a simple pop-up with a search to previously published headlines, and tickboxes to select them. Ideally, I'd like the pop-up to insert the selected headline links plus excerpts.

Possible? Anyone?

Did you ever find a solution to incorporating "related posts" into your typepad posts?

I'd love to be doing this, but I'm not interested in the effort in doing it manually. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Lex, I'm afraid I did not find a "related posts" solution, and I've recently given up doing it manually; it's just too time consuming.

If you ever come across a solution, please do let us know!
