This is a new endeavor: an end-of-year round-up of some of my favorite reads. Thanks to the wonders of technology (Twitter and Evernote, in particular), it was almost easy to do. May you find a post or article that tickles your curiosity and broadens your perspective.

So those are my picks this time around. Such rich reading. Enjoy as much as you can and let me know what

Dang.
You are organized. I can barely remember last month, never mind January. But thank you for sharing many articles that I likely missed, and now have an opportunity to read. If I can just remember to bookmark your post … (got it!)
Kevin
If only you knew, Kevin! Thanks for sharing that impression. Again, the tech facilitated my memory. Evernote holds onto whatever I tweet out so that’s my starting point. I don’t remember the date but Evernote does. We’re a good team that way. 🙂
Thanks so much for posting these! They are now part of my required reading for the next few days. I really appreciate you sharing.
