Following up on the most underreported stories of the year, I thought I'd pick a few select blog entries as my top 10 stories of the year. (Or actually of the last six months of my blogging here at InfoWorld.) That's not to say these are the best or most significant stories in the blogosphere, but they struck me as significant stories and in most cases got a lot of response from readers. -Open Source Hardware -O

-Open Source Hardware

-Oracle Gets Big

-Amazon Kindle: Kool or Krap?

-Jim Starkey on Relational Databases

-Better Software Through Small Teams

-Transformation at Red Hat?

-Nokia N810 Tablet with Keyboard

-Eating your own dogfood

-Product Management

-Apple’s iPod Touch

Ok, and a bonus, my vacation column of The Automatic Software Pundit.

Still, that left out a few favorites about Gartner’s view on open source, Fake Larry Ellison, O’Reilly Radar at Oscon, my trip to China etc. But these are my picks.

If you were hoping for a more comprehensive wrap up of open source in 2007, I highly recommend Matt Asay‘s 2 story posting on his blog at CNet. I don’t think you can find a more complete listing of significant events during the year. Not to mention Arsenal football matches. What a year!
