It&#8217;s been a great experience.  I&#8217;ve had good months (15 posts) and bad months (1 post), but I&#8217;ve written 352 posts over the last four years.  I&#8217;ve learned a lot from this blog&#8211;how to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000113\">shoot my mouth off<\/a>, how to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000174\">acknowledge mistakes in public<\/a>, and how to write a post that gets <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000024\">hijacked by others for their own purposes<\/a>.  I thought I&#8217;d take the opportunity to highlight four of my favorite posts.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000046\">Business Process Crystallization<\/a>: This is a nice little post about how software is both shaped by the business process it will assist and shapes that same process.  It&#8217;s one of my original thoughts&#8211;at least I haven&#8217;t seen too much literature taking this view of software.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000376\">Installing the median user defined function on MySQL<\/a>: I always enjoy step by step tutorials, and this is one of the better ones I have written.  I also enjoyed the challenge of making a mysql user defined function work when I&#8217;d never done any significant C development.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000136\">The Social Life of Information<\/a>: This book was a slow read, but explains a fascinating concept&#8211;that much of the information we receive is contextual and connotative.  This was a revelation to me, since I&#8217;m more comfortable with denotative, explicit information.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/archives\/000136\">Step By Step: A Mortgage Calculator using GWT<\/a>: I enjoyed this blogging experience, the entire series.  My client and I worked together to release a site repeatedly over a week, as well as releasing the source code and documenting the entire experience of learning, developing and deploying a new technology.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been four years and a few days since I started writing this blog.
