If you have sequential pages, I don't like dates in the URIs. For example if you have something spread over 5-pages (e.g. a 5-part blog post), I should be able to guess the URIs for all 5 parts just given one. Dates mean that I cannot do that.

In the early days, before the spam, a post would create pingbacks at some well-known-url, so post #2 would create a pingback link at post #1 if you referenced it.

Cursors can be used to solve this issue sometimes.

How would that help be able to predict the page urls?
