tychoish Site Archives

"Create meaningful archive" has long been on my list of things to do for this site. The problem is that most archives *suck*. They provide you with a huge list of posts without a lot of context or meaningful organization besides chronology. Wouldn't it be better if there were lists of posts, with useful descriptions of the content, arranged by theme and issue? It would be nice, but I've not managed to get something like that built. In the mean time, please consult the search tool, and the following list of the most recent posts. Additionally I provide full source for the website for archival purposes.

Series Archives

I tend to write posts in loose series that focus on a common train of thought and examine ideas from a number of different perspectives and angles. Following the diatribe above on archives, in an effort to provide archives that *suck less*, I've collected (by hand!) some of these series into indicies that I hope are useful for introducing you to the work that I do on tychoish.com. If you would like to suggest an edit or would like to request an additional archive, please feel free.
