Top 24 of 2004

There’s a nice meme just started, asking people to list their Top 24 posts of 2004 (via). I
decided to check out my web stats and dig out the most-visited posts of 2004 for
Read/Write Web. They may not necessarily be “the best” posts in terms of quality, but the
people have spoken and the following posts were the most popular. Actually a lot of my
favourites did make it to the list, which is great. A few odd ones too, that I wouldn’t
have picked. 

Here is my top of the pops for 2004:

1. Interview with Marc
Canter



2. The Fractal
Blogosphere



3. There is no End
User



4. Weblogs as Avatars: some
thoughts



5. Knowledge Management for
Generation Y



6. Analysing Bloglines
Subscriber Stats



7. Internal Corporate
Blogging



8. A Theory of Synchronicity
for the Web



9. Information Flow


10. A New Kind of
Literacy



11. Fractal Web applied to
Blogging



12. Reaching for the Golden
Ring (or Getting Paid)



13. Multimedia
Blogging



14. Mama don’t let your baby
grow up to be a Generalist



15. We’re all on the same
page



16. Stasis and
Synchronicity



17. Reliance


18. Notes on Tim O’Reilly’s
Oscon 2004 speech



19. Quick thoughts on Kottke’s
Re-Design



20. Knowledge Management in the
Real World

NB: I interrupt the list there, because turns out there’s nothing after early August –
not even the Slashdotted Lucas
Gonze interview
in October. That surprises me, but I guess it goes to show how much
extra traffic Google brings for a blog post in the months following its publication. So
to make up for the lack of recent stuff, to finish my Top 24 list here are 4 of my
favourite posts from September-November 2004:

* Why Yahoo! + RSS = Good
Thing

* Content Renaissance On The
Web

* Tim O’Reilly
Interview

* Branding
Microcontent

There you have it, those are my most popular posts of 2004! I’d love to read other
peoples lists. It’s a good way to get to know a blogger’s interests and themes. Plus, for the
writer, it’s a handy way to build up a recommendation list for new readers.
