I've been thinking about figuring out the order of published adventures but
as I don't have a complete collection it would be difficult and incomplete.
Does anyone know where I could find a timeline of all published adventures?
Also I know there are some links between adventures, (re-occurring
characters and such), is there a good source for these too?

You're in luck there, as I happen to have figured that bit out before I
started my campaign :) Go to
http://www.xs4all.nl/~gurth/shadowrun/adventure dates.html -- note there
is a space between "adventure" and "dates", so if your browser chokes
on
that replace it by "%20" (without the quotes). Yes, I know I should fix
that. I also should do 926 other things that I haven't got round to :)

That, I haven't looked into. It is not very much, though; see after the
Nirvana quote:

A warning up front: this is going by memory, and has not been looked up in
the books that are standing on the shelf underneath my computer (call me
lazy -- see above :) There are only a few recurring NPCs in the
adventures, listed below as I remember them.

Blackwing: Bottled Demon (where he's also called Bloodwing) & Dragon Hunt
Jane Foster: Harlequin & Harlequin's Back
Harlequin: Harlequin & Harlequin's Back (duh...)
Kyle Morgan: Mercurial & A Killing Glare
Perianwyr: Mercurial & A Killing Glare

And that is about it, I believe.
