Best of Jon Ray 2008

Best of lists are usually a way to pander to lazy readers that don’t want to waste their time with any posts that might be considered sub-par and thus, unworthy of their time. In a way, just having a “Best of” list assumes that some of my posts aren’t as good as the others, but I digress. I’ll assume that you don’t fit into the typical “get to the good stuff” category and that you’re only on this “Best of Jon Ray” landing page to go back and reread some of your favorite posts. So, without further ado, here are some of my favorite posts from 2008 for your reading pleasure organized by category.
