As 2006 draws to a close, Of Zen and Computing would like to sincerely thank all of its readers for contributing to the success of its first year. It has been truly amazing to watch OZaC grow from zero to its current state since it was born back in March, and we can only look forward to where we’ll go from here.
Just ten months ago, we set out with the simple task of creating a website that helped normal people understand their computers, and solve their own problems. In that time, we’ve published 135 quality articles that attempted to bring mysterious subjects into the light of understanding for over 139,000 visitors. Those stats might pale in comparison to more popular sites, but frankly we are thankful for each and every visitor, and have thoroughly enjoyed our first year online. If just one more person understands what RSS is, or managed to get rid of their spy-ware infestation, then we have succeeded. Here’s to a great 2006, and an even better 2007!
In typical year-end fashion, here’s a list of 2006’s most popular Of Zen and Computing articles:
- Get rid of Thumbs.db
