Katie writes: The chronological nature of a blog means that quality posts continually find themselves getting buried deeper and deeper in the archives with the passage of time. The idea behind My 7 Links is to dig up some of those posts at the bottom of the heap so that readers can discover "new" material or get reacquainted with old posts they'd forgotten about.
[1] My Most Beautiful Post
Una Tanda Mas
[2] My Most Popular Posts
The Circle of Tango, but Vettriano and His Secrets surprisingly comes in a close second. And any post about tango shoes is immediately popular. (The classic all-time favorite post is the page about Ruben y Cherie's Tango Lessons.)
[3] My Most Controversial Posts
Woo--ee, I opened a can of worms with this one: Passion, Love, Tango
After this post and my bits on TV's Bailando Por Un Sueno, and Dancing for Marcelo, I am very careful not to use "those" words that people are Googling at 3 a.m. Call me crazy, but I don't want "those" people to come to my blog for the wrong reasons! (Why do I care, right?)
[4] My Most Helpful Post
Probably my most practical post was Tangofoot, but since I just republished that one, I'll pick another. Actually, looking back through so many posts I think all of the ones on the etiquette and codigos in Buenos Aires have been most helpful, judging by the comments. But I'll list this one as also useful:
Seasons of Tango.
[5] The Post Whose Success Most Surprised Me
What Happens in BsAs Doesn't Stay in BsAs
[6] Posts I Feel Didn’t Get the Attention They Deserved
Mucho Macho
I Blog Therefore I Am
Piropo
[7] The Post That You Are Most Proud Of
Hero Worship/False Idols
And here I'm going to add another category: the posts I had the most fun writing. And guess what? They are all about Ruben!
Hoppy!
The Face of Pagliacci
El Negro y La Novia
Secrets of a Milonguero
The Milonguero Way
Timing is Everything! Part I
Excuse me for indulging myself, but then you only have Katie to blame!! Gracias, linda, for giving me a reason to ponder and review so many years of blogging!
