The Best of Bill - 2004
Friday, December 31, 2004
It's time for the last post of 2004. Zach Beane has already created a
2004 Lisp Timeline and John Wiseman has posted a
2004 Roundup (+/- 51 weeks ;-) ), so I'll just
post on the "Best of Bill" for 2004!
You can always find my past weblog postings by either drilling down from the monthly
summaries (available when you click on the month name in the calendar
in the side bar) or by using the search utility (also in the side
bar); however, New Year's Eve is traditionally a time for thinking
back on the past year
(see
here,
here, and
here), so I
decided to go back through the last 12 months of postings and pick
out the ones that I thought were my better posts of 2004. The posts
that I chose are
either:
- Posts that generated a lot of reader email/comments
- Posts that I considered significant
- Posts that took me a long time to write (so somebody damn well better read them!) ;-)
