Yippee! Let’s poison ourselves with beverages that will make us violently ill! It was your battle cry last night, and today you’re paying the price. But what is that hangover you’re experiencing, exactly? More »
Well another year is over, and it was loaded with triumph and tragedy as usual. But as usual, humankind persevered – at least when it came to their gadgets and geekery.
All tolled, we published over 3,700 posts this year, bringing our total since we launched in 2006 up to over 14,200 posts. And that’s just one of our two sites! We know that not all of you visit Technabob every day (we wish you would – so why not subscribe to our RSS Feed?), so in case you missed any of our biggest stories, here are the 30 most popular articles we posted in 2012…
As you can see, there’s a pretty good variety of stuff, ranging from gadgets and video games, to geeky costumes, to the funny and just downright weird on the list. There’s also a typically large volume of Apple tech, and an atypically large amount of Assassin’s Creed stuff. Guess you guys couldn’t get your fill of Connor/Ratonhnhaké:ton this year.
Technabob continues to grow thanks to you guys. We ended the year with over 8.2 million unique visitors, and just over 15 million pages viewed on the site during 2012. And since we launched in 2006, we’ve had over 30 million unique visitors and 54 million pageviews. The mind boggles.
Thanks for another great year! Be sure to stop back by in 2013 for all sorts of cool stuff.
Be the first to greet your friends and spam the heck out of their inboxes on New Year’s day! If greeting the people closest to you when the ball drops is something you’ve always done every year, then you might find Facebook Stories’ new Midnight Message Delivery service useful.
The service lets you send a special message to your chosen recipients at 12:00am on January 1st, 2013 in their local timezone. No need to send mass SMS or be at your laptop on New Year’s ever because you can draft up your messages right here, right now so you can spend the last hours of 2012 actually celebrating it instead of fussing over greetings.
Just pin the Facebook Stories app to your wall, create lists of people you want to send New Year greetings to, and bang out your message.
In other words, Facebook has made it easy for you to spam your friends and annoy countless others with automated and scheduled deliveries. But hey, it’s the New Year – you probably won’t be on Facebook anyway!
