#TCchat20: Transcripts

After both chat sessions on any given week, I’ll post copies of transcripts. It’s usually within 24 hours. If there’s an S2, I wait until both sessions have completed.

Updated: March 24, 2012
- Updated references to chat name: #tcchat to #tcchat20
- Removed some outdated content
- Switched order of transcript listing. Most current info is now at the top of the list. (Thx to @TechWriteNowX for the suggestion.)
