You chose some very interesting and intelligent words to use for this post. The one suggestion I have for improving this post is to have the linked words a different color than the rest of the words on the post. It was a little confusing to find the links to each word, do to the same color of all the words. You could have had all the linked words on this post be blue and the rest of the words to be white. Besides that, as mentioned earlier you picked out some really good words to put this post all together.
