My 100th Post!
This is it. You’re reading it right now. Were you reading it in your favorite fast food chain, you’d win a free milkshake.
I really had no plans for my 100th post other than to announce that this is truly my 100th post since starting the blog in 2006. With the fanfare, I thought it’d be exciting to look back on a few of my favorite posts and add commentary about how the blog and I have changed since its inception.
In total I’ve found nine biggies. Link to the ones I’m forgetting in the comments.
1. Frist Post!!!!!!!!!11!!1!0!11!
You know how good first posts can be… 
This one was actually my second, though I think it qualifies. Read at your own risk.
2. Third Post!
This one might honestly have something to it. Topics covered: “Agile as a marketing term.” “What does it mean to be Agile?” “Agile from a student’s perspective.” Actually made it onto a “Top 10 Agile Analogies” blog post from someone I don’t know personally. Sweet.
3. Ruby Subversion Bindings: You heard it here first.
These two posts — this one and this one — are the two posts that drive most of the traffic to my blog. Usually they drive more than half the unique visitors per month, and that’s simply because official documentation for the Ruby Subversion bindings doesn’t exist yet (to my knowledge). Now they’ve the top Google hit. Go figure.
4. The Beginning of “Tim Bits.”
This post is my reaction to the workshop where the first Tim-Bit was born. A bit dramatic, but still delicious.
5. AST Certification Debate
This was a hot button at CAST 2007. Five representatives of major software testing certification programs graciously agreed to a facilitated debate. I’m sure you can imagine the elephant tensions in the room once the AST members got a hold of their K-cards. 
6. CAST 2008
Hands down great professional experience. Response to CAST 2009 to come soon.
7. My Move to New York.
Though the blog doesn’t properly show it, the move was not at all what I expected — and it included a fictional misdemeanor on my credit report preventing me from getting an apartment. I am not a crook, guys. Sheesh!
8. I start test managing!
Well… kindof. A good attempt in my context. I’m sure there’s a lot more to learn.
9. The Prestige
And last but not least: what I’d call my greatest post to date (i.e., well written, insightful… …modest. ). This represented a round of both career and soul searching that ended in an extremely pleasant result. More on that to come very soon.

As always, a big thank you goes to all my readers.
