Happy New Year 2012

Happy New Year 2012 The year 2011 is behind us and as a short summary of the past year's tech trends, it could be said that the year belonged to mobile and tablets. Console and PC technology seem to have approached certain level of maturity and major product launches that would've changed the industry just didn't happen. And meanwhile, mobile technology seems to be in middle of a breathtaking evolution process, where market shares, technologies and even company names seem to change completely, from one financial quarter to another.
For us, year 2011 was a year during which we focused on improving our site's backend and usability. For regular users, this meant that major, visible changes didn't occur, but hopefully the site is faster and easier to use than it was a year ago. For 2012, we plan to further improve our site's usability, make some changes to variety of site sections to make them easier to use and navigate. But major layout changes are unlikely to happen during the next year.

Now, I want to thank all of our users, employees, moderators and partners for the past year and wish everybody a happy new year 2012.

Happy new year everyone! Death to SOPA in 2012. Lets show the same fervor for booting these censorial politicians out of office, as we do when netflix, verizon, etc. try and rake us for a couple of extra bucks.
Keep up the great work Afterdawn.
