My Year In Blogging

I didn’t write nearly as much in 2011 as I would have liked, or as I did in 2009 and 2010, but I believe I wrote many deeper more meaningful pieces. As always I hope at least some of you found value in at least some of them ;)

Below are my favorite posts from this year with a short introduction to each. You can always find all of my favorite posts on the Best Of tab.
