The end of the year naturally means a rush to come up with 'best of the best' top lists consisting of your finest content. However, based on personal observations, during the holidays season the short attention span of the average reader becomes even shorter with everyone looking forward to taking a well-deserved break. Therefore, the first working week of the new year appears to be the perfect moment to summarize some of my most insightful posts/analysis published at ZDNet's Zero Day for 2009.
The following ten posts have been featured due to their insightful content, comprehensiveness of the topic covered, and due to plain simple exclusivity in the time of their publishing. You will be, of course, missing the big picture if you don't keep track of Ryan Naraine's coverage.
Thank you for being a Zero Day reader!
