We here at Riptide are responsible for penning somewhere in the neighborhood of 3,000 blog posts a year. They run the gamut from hard-hitting investigative stories to lighthearted satire. That's our responsibility.
You, the internet browsing populace, your responsibility is clicking on and reading those stories. So in a way, you're responsible for our top ten posts of the year by pageviews.
