Those links aren't quite right; you want the "Link" link at the bottom of each post.

Here's one of them:

blog post on Goblin Promo Cards for PACG making them legal for Goblins Fight! Deck or Goblins Burn! Deck on 7/2016.

blog post on Faction Pin benefits on 6/2016.

Faction Pin Benefits:

At PaizoCon, we debuted new Pathfinder Society faction pins. We also announced that while the pins wouldn't allow a reroll, like other items, they would grant another in-game benefit to players. The team put its head together and developed a really cool faction flavored program for the pins.

Once per session, while wearing a faction pin matching your character's faction, you may add 1 to any skill check. If you apply this benefit to one of your faction's favored skills, listed below, you instead roll 1d4 and add the result. For this roll you also treat the faction's favored skill as if you were trained, even if you don't have a rank in it.

Favored Skills

   Dark Archive(C): Knowledge (arcana), Linguistics, and Use Magic Device
   The Exchange(Q): Appraise, Intimidate, and Knowledge (local)
   Grand Lodge(G): Diplomacy, Knowledge (history), and Survival
   Liberty's Edge(A): Escape Artist, Perform, and Disable Device
   Scarab Sages(O): Knowledge (any)
   Silver Crusade(V): Heal, Knowledge (religion), and Sense Motive
   Sovereign Court(T): Bluff, Disguise, and Knowledge (nobility)

I added faction abbreviations as they are not obvious.

blog post announcing Ritual of Stardust limited time chronicle on 12/19/2015. Offer expired 01/09/2016 and link has been removed. Chronicle must be applied to a character within that time period.

Ritual of Stardust:

This Chronicle sheet may only be assigned to a Pathfinder Society character between December 19th, 2015 and January 9th, 2016. Once assigned, the effects may be used at any time thereafter.
... Choose one of the following benefits, and cross the other off your Chronicle sheet.
   Guiding Stars: As a standard action, you can throw the handful of sand into the air, causing the air to sparkle faintly for 1 minute in a 40-foot radius centered on your space. All creatures in the area gain a +2 luck bonus on saving throws against any effects that would give them the confused condition, and any confused creature in the area that would act normally or babble incoherently on its turn receives a new saving throw against the confusion effect; if successful, the creature ends the effect for itself only.
   Starkissed Sand: Although the gem dust has minimal monetary value, you can use the entire handful when casting as spell as if it were powdered gemstones of any variety worth 250 gp. In addition, you can choose to augment the spell with one of the following metamagic feats without changing the spell slot of the adjusted spell: Enlarge Spell, Extend Spell, Heighten Spell (saving throw DC increases by 1), or Silent Spell. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.

OPC stated that both are one use items and the owner must pick one of the items (and cross out the other one). Chronicle can be applied(attached) with a GM chronicle.

blog post on Goblin Promo Card Ekkie character sheet for PACG on 6/2015.
Deck lists also given for Ekkie. I believe PACG play required a Mythic Champion mythic path card (mentioned in post).

above has link to Ekkie blog post on 2/2015. Which has Ranzak link in it.

blog post on We Be Goblins Free! on 6/2015. Has a few rules that may be handy for the Goblin series of 'Free RPG Day' modules.
In chat John Compton talks about a PC having the

Prestigious Goblin boon:

That character would need to have received the You Be Goblin or You Really Be Goblin boon on a Chronicle sheet assigned to him. Just having played one of the previous modules and assigned the credit to a different character would not earn the Prestigious Goblin boon.

of course they can be reported as standard or CORE.

long blog post on Pathfinder Unchained on 4/2015.
*disclaimer - some of this is contained by existing rules*

ban APG Summoner in PFS
rule for unchained barbarian archetypes(none that modify how rage operates)
rule for unchained monk archetypes(none compatible to date 4/2017)
rule for unchained rogue archetypes
rule for unchained summoner archetypes(any that don't modify eidolon type or base form)

meat of the post:

one time rebuild and free faction change expired 4/29/2015.{summary}

You may notice that we did not say the unchained summoner would be available alongside its Advanced Player's Guide counterpart. Effective immediately, the Advanced Player's Guide summoner is no longer available in the organized play campaign, and the unchained summoner is its legal replacement. However, we recognize that someone who already has a summoner (and the book to play it) should not be punished for this change. Therefore, if you have a character with levels in the summoner class, and you have played the character at least once at level 2 or higher, you get to keep your summoner as is; you may also continue to gain levels in the summoner class. Any character gaining a level in summoner for the first time must use the unchained summoner, and anyone character still within the 1st-level window of free rebuilding must also use the unchained summoner.

As a final note, we want to advise folks about archetype and other features' compatibility for the unchained classes for the organized play campaign.

   The unchained barbarian qualifies for any archetype that does not modify how the rage class feature operates (such as the urban barbarian archetype), and she is limited to any barbarian rage power that appears in Chapter 1 (including the rage powers on page 13)
   The unchained monk does not qualify for any archetypes, save those in future publications that specifically cite their compatibility with the unchained monk class.
   The unchained rogue qualifies for all existing rogue archetypes, but she is limited to any rogue talents listed in Chapter 1 (including the sidebar on page 24).
   The unchained summoner qualifies for all existing summoner archetypes, save those that modify the eidolon's type or base form.

The Pathfinder Society Team

John Compton stated in the thread, "If player wants, she can freely retrain an APG summoner into an unchained summoner." and "You'll need to make sure you apply any changes before you play the character again after this blog went live. If you don't play your barbarian until December 2015 for whatever reason, you would perform the rebuild then."

which should help anyone that shows up with an APG summoner at this point.
The blog thread is long and contentious at times (747 posts) as the rebuild period was rather short and there were a lot of questions.
