Phwoar. Anyone know where this year has gone? 

To mark the occasion, we’ve compiled the top 10 most clicked articles in The100 this year. 

Grab yourself a brew and enjoy…

## In 10th

Behold! [How to scare an insight manager,](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7125034239250608129/) courtesy of Sinae Hudson. 

## In 9th

A highly addictive click through of [airport views around the world](https://randomairport.onrender.com/?utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_5-M96zu5US-X9Q3bNnguWLcmr8yf4-GXWpBnJp4Mx4WNzoYiDzMX5WeBYSzVbzfqb-g1_). The contrast between Birmingham, UK and Koh Samui, Thailand really is quite something.

## In 8th

Planning Dirty’s [10 examples of idea platforms,](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1HUvBxS9hbe8NIhhIuPa4L4AWjhVqACxG1W9bzm4HPm0/edit?utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_-d4V_22Br_IaEYUb51ZlCLFWAPp09AG38SIJiR6ZnWxnFZUA2ik4FYSPDLl0SbsGv8Vul#slide=id.g64e16436a2_0_287) including the likes of KFC and Dove.

## In 7th

Speaking of Dove, their [Cost of Beauty advert](https://www.thedrum.com/news/2023/04/13/ad-the-day-dove-partners-with-lizzo-tackle-toxic-body-transformation-social-posts?utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_-d4V_22Br_IaEYUb51ZlCLFWAPp09AG38SIJiR6ZnWxnFZUA2ik4FYSPDLl0SbsGv8Vul) came in at 7. You have to admire the storytelling and emotional impact.

## In 6th

A list of [awfully good oxymorons](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/simon-gore-32774a6_oxymoron-wordplay-language-activity-7069932131631656960-Pl02?utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9nps92BMWPCSxKOwAAyIHjFsBYHTf_PZAVz68-UghRk84-VcBjx79plhdDnj8PZWiB_opd) from Simon Gore.

## In 5th

Mark Ritson makes a top 10 appearance for the 3rd year in a row, this time talking about [pointless segmentations.](https://www.marketingweek.com/ritson-sgementation-pointless/?&utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9NukzDT-2ODeKAKMn4BrJ_uWn-GJG1b5-oGU9x86Vu5LYTKhHRf32ylcS5lH5MosDoSokO)

## In 4th

Reckon you’re good at spotting a liar? In 4th place is [a test to find out.](https://learning.elucidat.com/course/5e15ef4ca5d25-5e15f0b95185a?utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9sEYU67-T3ZSnoI9LqLJArLxPWggkn6ovqWas1Z7LSW_gY0p61dbANZotMbv_LyqfwvDDF) 

## In 3rd

A late entry from last Friday, Rory Sutherland’s [top 10 ads of all time](https://www.42courses.com/blog/home/rory-sutherlands-top-10-ads-of-all-time)– which, coming from him, is some praise. 

## In 2nd

Malcolm Gladwell on [**not** starting your talk with a bang.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgEs61k2mxY&t=3253s&utm_campaign=The100&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9f1guFqaToTyTGsrpFV4J71mPOet0L8hxF9qB4fTJ_mmivmmR6rTxd1zCYxzKof0IQwh5Z)

## And in 1st… 

Marcus John Henry Brown and his [Speakery Presentation Canvas.](https://speakery.de/the-speakery-presentation-canvas/) Read it. Download it. Then use it for every presentation or talk you plan to give in the future.
