(2) We could make a "best of 2019" series that would run for 3-5 slots on the Magazine. Last year I think we chose articles that represented for developers, sysadmins, and user tools. We could use those or even add a couple categories. We could do a year-end wrap up as well.
I'm a big fan of this sort of post. It's a great way to highlight articles that people may have missed. Since we're looking at filling 5 slots or so, I'd suggest the following:
- Best developer articles (5 articles)
- Best sysadmin articles (5 articles)
- Best user tools articles (5 articles)
- Most-read articles (10? most-read, perhaps adjusted for calendar)
- Editors' choice (5 articles that the editors loved, perhaps with a
focus on highlighting first-time writers)
I like all of these, although 10 seems like a large number and might end up being repetitive with #1-3. I especially like the #5 idea about highlighting new writers! We should perhaps also alert those writers to the fact that they're featured, if we do this!
