Some of my favorite Hubski posts are the ones that feature original content or links to content that the person posting it has authored, especially when the author takes part in the ensuing discussion. We are fortunate to have this often and I think it is something to be celebrated. Here are some that come quickly to mind:
lil - What's the best advice ever? theadvancedapes - Presidential candidates on science StJohn - Dodo à l’Orange cW - Letters to a Young Mixologist And many more
Also, occasionally we will have the author of a post stop by Hubski to discuss an article they wrote that was shared by one of our community. I think this is great and it deserves a spotlight. Here are some of my favorites:
Hasan Elahi discusses his article from the New York Times You Want to Track Me? Here You Go FBI
Marshall Poe discusses his article from The Atlantic titled Meme Weaver -Marshall also contributes links to Hubski from his site New Books In History -A fantastic resource.
Tim Doody stopped by to talk about his piece The Heretic -a post that I thought had some great discussions... I mean, who doesn't like remembering their old trips?
Most recently, we had Leon Neyfakh come by to discuss his piece from the Boston Globe titled Who Owns You After You Die? -another great discussion and a case where the author added some interesting insight.
I just thought I'd point these out. It's awesome when authors take the time to stop by Hubski and take part in our discussions. It's also awesome when people share their original work. I love that. Keep the essays coming b_b, mk , insomniasexx and others...
