Jingwen’s Best Of 2008

December 30, 2008 | Filed under Online

This year’s collection of “Best Of” entries takes a slightly different format to last year’s. Rather than simply selecting entries that I personally enjoyed writing, or which received the most responses, this year’s selection is rather of entries which I feel have contributed something new. Whether it’s by imparting information and “How To” guides, or philosophical posts that get people thinking, or details of trips taken, this year’s “Best Of” collection is a collection of ways Jingwen has hopefully contributed to the sum of human knowledge.

  1. Great compilation. You might want to check the code, though – the oysters recipe is coming up broken.
