Next Practices

Of the few thousand tweets I read and countless links I followed for the week ending April 23, 2011, here are the 67 I found worth retweeting. Grab your favorite beverage, get cozy and follow these links for some interesting and worthwhile reading. And if you’re inclined to thank me for all the time I just saved you by mining these gems for you, I accept any kind of chocolate and my favorite beverage (Ale-8) as tokens of appreciation. Enjoy!
