Last week, I began posting links to “Retro Posts” from the blog on Twitter and my Facebook page. I’m doing this as a way to put to use some of the thousands of posts I’ve written here over the years. I try to pick posts I think are either good, or interesting, but my only real rule is not to pick anything I’ve written in the last 365 days.

Since not everyone who reads here follows me on Twitter or Facebook, I figured I’d post a summary of the previous week’s retro posts for anyone who was curious. If you want to see these as they appear each day, you can follow me on Twitter or my Facebook page. Since last week was my inaugural week trying this out, there are only three of these. Going forward, each week will have 7 retro posts, one a day.
