Why do this? I understand the desire to organize, but why make bins with nothing in them? As it is, all he needs is /s/.

I would naturally expect .../2012/ to have either all the 2012 posts or all months that have posts, .../2012/04/ to have all of 2012's April posts or all days that have posts, etc. But not nothing.
