    Help me out here... I always get confused.

    301 = good
    302 = bad

    right?

    301 = permanent redirect
    302 = temporary redirect

    right?

    I renamed a page and I want to redirect it. This is what googling told me..., but it seems backwards to me so I thought I'd consult the experts. :)

    Right; plus

    303 = See Other
    307 = Temporary Redirect

    303 is intended to be used as a response to a POST'ed form (e.g. you processed a purchase and redirected the user to the receipt page). 303 is never cacheable. 307 is equivalent to 302 and is meant to disambiguate 302 (basically, IETF split 302 onto 303 and 307).
