Hey Jeff, thanks for sharing this post, just went in and commented. I know that I have had the same issues myself with my tutorials, etc. As I mentioned in that post always great if dates and versions can be highlighted. Also, linking to newer videos that have updated info. But it can be a lot of work because, as you said, there is a lot of good stuff in the archives, and going through and deciding can be a bit of work. I know one of my posts from 2012 is still my most commented post because of it's content and the concept behind it hasn't changed with WP.

In a nutshell, I always looking at some archived solution.

They have a lot of work to do no matter what direction they take!
