It's been a good year. No one will deny that mistakes were made, nor that changes were made. Overall, good job guys. Looking forward to more ( and better) in the next year.

@jepzilla: If website are charged for customers, then how will startups like Google (was) ever come to be again? It's not necessarily wrong, it's just another view.

@slevine001: If all ISPs run with this, all new ISPs will too. Where will you run?

@Joey the Squid: LOL, mine too.

@Traveshamockery: Oh no, please take MY money instead, and then raise MY taxes so he won't have to pay. Yes, screw him.

@ri59: Not true, the tax cut bill had to be signed in order to stop the blockade republican put up concerning extensions of unemployment benefits. That's all this was, a band-aid that will sink us deeper in the economy simply because the rich didn't want to pay what they should.

@grifter102: Thats not true. You only get taxed more if you make less than a billion dollars. Why do you think senators push so hard for these things. So, the key here is to make sure you work so much over time it runs into the 7digit mark. :)

@Terry: Actually to late for that joke. It takes less time for a joke to go stale on the interwebz. :)

I had something snide, but you guys don't deserve that. Seriously though, you may want to cover the Lifehacker.com [Tab key] function in Chrome if you're going to write a whole article on this.

Im really glad to see this hasn't turned into a bash post. Eh, day's still young. On that note, I recommend it to all my clients as the best free AV available. Check out AV-Comparatives.org.

@jeremy_tulsa: That is worth mentioning. Great point!

I use password/username leveling

Okay, first note. I'm a Google Fan and a Garmin Fan. Let that be as it may.

I can dig this. Not a bad idea. We'll see what you guys make of it.

I know people have a huge problem with this, well, some people. I know me, personally, and other techs I know, we haven't had a problem with this. Here's why.

I want to get in on Diaspora now. I'm just not a dev. I'm waiting for someone to remove facebook from it's number one place, or atleast come in a close second.

@Costermonger: You can backup your pc's by imaging them with DriveImageXML. It's free.

@keyboard-vomit: Yeah, but wouldn't it be awesome if some of our not so tech friends actually attempted (and accomplished) one or more of these feats? I mean, when "it's the thought that counts," shouldn't it be a thought about something we'd actually appreciate. Then again, maybe socks are your thing. ;)

@milrtime83: Ah thank you!

@ckempo: Exactly as @Bobkoure said. We aren't Firefox ONLY users. Chrome, Opera, and Firefox all have a sync feature, but then I'm tied to that browser. This lets me organize my 'marks within lots of other browsers.
