2006 Year In Review: preview

If it’s the middle of January, it’s a fine time to start a year in review.

Starting today, I’m going to post a month-by-month review of 2006, looking at a big story for each month and the other important news from around that time. I’m writing this as I’ve gotten thru April, so I’ve already figured out my review will be heavy into the Big 2, but I’ll try to cover pretty much anything I found noteworthy at the time.

There will be plenty of links, if you want to go back and see what we were thinking back when everything actually took place. And I’ll probably throw lots of pointless statistics in at some point, so that’ll be fun for everyone. Basically, this is one of those ideas I think it’d be pretty cool if someone else did, but figured out only would bother to do it (in English, at least.)

A new month will be posted each morning, around 7am CST. You can use the yir tag to read them all as they come out, and I’ll probably add it to the sidebar at some point. Comments, complains about stuff I omitted, and thoughts about the year are always welcome. Somewhere along the line, I’ll get around to talk about 2006 Tapatia awards.

Hope you enjoy this.
