August was a huge month for Firefox since they hit the 200 million download mark. KDE (a Linux desktop) released a new Start Menu that is unlike any other that you have used before and continues to push Linux further and further.

This is the month that CyberNet switched over to a dedicated server to make sure we can handle our future traffic needs. It also seemed to be the month of cool things: a self-parking BMW, 4D globe,  Xbox 360 case mods, and more.

The Pirate Bay was the talk of the month since they had their servers seized and then quickly returned to them after authorities found no illegal content. To help crack down on piracy Microsoft also updated their Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) process to check for counterfeit versions of Windows XP...which unexpectedly identified legitimate versions of Windows as counterfeit.

In May 2006 Mozilla continued to keep quite about their Pocket PC Web browser and Gmail horror stories started to make their rounds around the Web. The most unforgettable thing in May was probably the magazine that reported on an April Fool's joke posted by another website. 

April Fool's Day brought some great laughs but that didn't stop any big news from happening later in the month.

March was more of a fun month with a lot of news from Google and a few big acquisitions. This is also when our site's traffic really got a boost.

February 2006...the fun continued with a delay in the first pre-release version of Firefox 2 and a free Flash Drive offer from Microsoft that apparently no one received.

As the New Year shines upon us (about 9 hours away in the United States - Central Time) we thought we should start recapping the events from the year. A few days ago we made a post looking back at the Firefox news but now it is time to broaden the scope a little bit.
