What is the Deadpost Intitiative?

The Deadpost Initiative is an attempt to give love to some posts that were overlooked during their short 7 day life span, a chance to bring your old posts back to life and maybe make some friends in the process. The goal is not only to share some love with SBD but also by engagement to generate discussion.

Last week

This was one of those weeks where my job was quite difficult. So many great posts, some had lots of upvotes, others lots of comments, new faces, old faces, a post that didn't fit in to the guidelines of the contest but was very much worth a reward....yeah. Great week though!
