Right now the two main approaches are:\r\n\r\n1. Download RAZ. (Not actually on LW.)\r\n2. Go to the wiki and go down [the list](https://wiki.lesswrong.com/wiki/Map_and_Territory).\r\n3. Click article navigation, and then 'next' by author.\r\n\r\nLet's add a third way. My initial plan for how to do this is as follows:\r\n\r\nWe have the time when someone visited a post, and we have (on the wiki) a list of the posts in the Sequences. Let's find the earliest post in the Sequences that a user hasn't visited yet, and display a link to it as a sidebar. (Ideally, this does something less resource intensive than checking every post every time.)"}}
