We’ve been curating our editors’ picks for about 18 months now, give or take, and readers sure have taken to them. In our Daily Newsletter, the Friday Editor’s Choice feature is often one of the most read news items for that week.
As a result, we thought it would be fun at year-end to take a different approach. This week, I’m posting the top five most-read Editor’s Choice features compiled by Andy Shaughnessy. Seems like a fitting way to look back over the year, doesn’t it? So much as happened this past year that I had a hard time believing it once I started looking back.

Finally, Andy reported, it’s May. The snow has melted, and the flowers are blooming. The electronics industry was on the move as well. “This week, we bring you a veritable seafood platter of articles and columns about PCB design, fabrication, and assembly, starting with a David Bergman tribute to his father, Dieter Bergman.” Now, if that doesn’t make you want to read more …
