The sequences form an index of EY material. There is not a similar index for non-EY posts from 2009 on.
Well, there is an index: http://wiki.lesswrong.com/wiki/Less_Wrong/All_articles
Most useful, thank you!
(I wonder when someone will put together a page for the "Race and IQ" sequence.)
Agreed, which is why you seldom hear "you n00b, go read the dozens of unindexed posts!". It's a bit of a pity those aren't better indexed - a few of them are referenced on the wiki, but I don't know how many people use it to look for new posts to read (I know the wiki helped me when looking for older posts on decision theory).
A bloglike thing like LessWrong may not be the best format for collecting information for a rationalist community. Maybe it would be better to use some kind of of rationalist wiki ;-)
People have started indexing a few Yvain, Alicorn, and lukeprog posts into minor sequences.
